This is the place where the majority of the warbird (aircraft that have survived military service) discussions will take place. Specialized forums may be added in the new future

I was under the impression that the main reason the Enola Gay was raised up off the floor was to prevent vandalism..like the "sneeze guard" plexiglass panels next to her nose along the catwalk.

Anyone know what the plan is for the B-25 Carol Jean? It was delivered straight from the airshow circuit in flyable condition and went directly into storage and hasn't been seen since. I would naively think it could be rolled right on out and onto display (some assembly required?) but apparently that's not the case or it would have already happened...

In my opinion Carol Jean should be towed across the airport to the NASM building and put on display as is. Later it can be touched up where necessary. It seems strange how they do things there. I have heard too many chiefs and not enough indians at the Smithsonian.
