For anyone interested in the history of American Aviation, the Evergreen Aviation & Space Museum provides a fascinating learning experience into what makes flying wonderful.

The centerpiece of the museum is the Hughes Flying Boat H-4 Spruce Goose. Built entirely of wood due to wartime restrictions on metals, this aircraft did fly once on November 2, 1947, at an altitude of 70 feet for one mile.

Two of the main attractions of the space flight center are a Titan II SLV satellite booster rocket and a SR-71 Blackbird. Also on display are many aircraft engines and helicopters, reflecting Evergreen Aviation's original helicopter fleet.

Lunch (at your expense) will be in the Museum’s Aviator Café.
