Anything new in the Seattle area?

Has anything different been done with displays at the Olympic Flight Museum in Olympia? Any new airframes? Is their F-104 on display yet?

Anying new on display at the Museum of Flight? What is going on at their restoration facility?

Has anyone been out to the Me-262 project? How is the third 262 coming along if at all. Has anyone seen the two Bf-109s they are working on?

Has anyone been up to the HFC in Arlington?

The above questions are asked in the context of changes in the last year or so.

Also... Apparently there is a MiG-21 in the parking lot of a car dealership in the Seattle area. Has anyone seen it?

Regards,

Mike

The Flying Heritage Collection's P-47D has had a number of test flights in California over the last few weeks and I've heard it might be up at Arlington by now.

Yes, the MiG 21 is at a Chevy dealer in Fife. I can't recall the name (I was driving by on my way to get my wife's Mini Cooper serviced) but it's on I-5.

If you do a Google seach for "MiG-21 Chevy Fife", I bet it will come up since it's a local landmark.

Don't forget to take the Boeing tour at Everett.

The Mig is at Jet Chevrolet. According to a close friend who is a manager there, It is for sale, they need the room for cars. I understand it has some type of paperwork with it, but dont know much more than that.
If your interested send me a PM and I will PM back to you the contact at Jet.
