“One of The Museum of Flight’s largest and most iconic aircraft, the Boeing B-52G Stratofortress 59-2584 Midnight Express, has been lost in plain sight for the past 26 years. This veteran warbird is being restored to its former glory and will have a new home in a place of honor on the Museum’s campus at Boeing Field<\/i><\/strong><\/p>\n

“The restored Midnight Express will reside on the west side of the Museum’s Aviation Pavilion in a serene park-like setting where visitors can reflect upon the B-52 and the nearly 8,000 other U.S. military aircraft lost during Vietnam.<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

“The plane will be joined by a statue depicting a returning aviator honoring veterans who served in all military branches between 1964 and 1975. The park will also feature an exhibit about the dozens of types of planes and helicopters flown during the war.”<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n
