Supersonic II

The supersonic mockup was the highlight of the SST museum, but there were other interesting things on display. Inside the building, there were several glass cases containing scale models built by local modelers. There was even a factory model of the SST in Delta airline livery.

This is a photo taken inside the Boeing SST plant showing the 2707-300 mockup as it was being fabricated. The mockup was complete, but was missing the starboard wing and tail plane.

Another interesting display was one of the original Sea Dart prototypes. How this ended up in Florida, is a mystery to me. I recently saw another nicely restored Sea Dart at the San Diego Air & Space Museum. I'll show a picture of that in a future post.
