Santa Monica Museaum of Flying Reopens!

[+Wrench]

Man, I missed this!!! I live less than a mile (the runway length), from this. Looks like they moved it from the older building on the north side of the field, to about mid-way down, in the center/southern side

definately gonna have to check it out; mainly to see the RG Smith artworks they used to have in the old place (I had them ALL as a kid. Family ties to Douglas Aircraft: my cousin Terri worked there, and my Dad stood guard around it in early WW2)

I think its the old Douglas engineering building they moved into - fitting location.
