Friday Excursion

Evergreen Aviation Museum

We are arranging a day excursion on Friday, October 31, to the Evergreen Aviation Museum in McMinnville, Oregon. This unique museum, located about one hour southwest of Portland, houses the "Spruce Goose" (Howard Hughes' giant seaplane) and over 50 historic commercial and military aircraft.

The museum is located in the heart of the Willamette Valley wine country; we are investigating a possible winery tour to be coupled with the museum visit.

Participants will pay their own museum admission; the conference will arrange transportation appropriate to the number of participants.

See how the "Spruce Goose" compares with other larger planes at the Giant Plane Comparison.
