For those of you who aren't near Washington, this is the annex to the downtown museum. Fantastic place to visit with a soon to be opening restoration facility. Sorry for the poor pics, but them camera is new and the lighting in the facility is indirect, making good pics difficult. Some rare birds nest here...

Do 335. Compare the size to the Arado "Blitz" in the background. Sole remaining example restored by original mechanics at Dornier in the 70's.Last edited by MJC; 06-29-2006, 03:20 PM. -

Arado "Blitz". I believe this is the sole example. Nice sailpane in the background, as is one of two submarine launched rotorcraft and the "Uhu".Last edited by MJC; 06-29-2006, 03:23 PM.Comment

a beautiful RCAF Lysander decked out as an SOE a/c, although a target tug in reality. That is all for now. Sorry for the poor pics, but I'll post more, and better, pics from NASM soon.
BTW, the restoration facility is very cool. I used to be a docent at the old Garber facility and some of the planes I worked with are now on display.
