John Stone, Webmaster of www.blackbirds.net, has connections into the Museum management.  While we were there, we were able to go into the back room, where there is a LOT of stuff stored.  Some things are previous displays that have been taken down.  Some things are aircraft that will be displayed someday.  A lot of things (I suspect ) are on permanent storage.

I took a million shots while we were walking through the back room.  I wish that I had more time and had a note pad or something to take notes.  There were a lot of stories about what was what, most of which I cannot remember, at least accuratly enough to tell here.  Many of the pictures that I took did not make it onto this page.  I sorted through what I thought told a good visual story and put them here.
