SEATTLE — The Museum of Flight Airpark is getting a new home, and moving day is Jan. 31. Three aircraft — the Concorde, Air Force One and Lockheed Constellation — will be towed across the street to join the Boeing 787 Dreamliner already parked next to the museum.
Beginning Feb. 14 the airpark will be adjacent to the museum’s main entrance facing Boeing Field.
A formation with the Concorde, Air Force One (pictured above) and Dreamliner will mark the new Airpark, while the Constellation will be stationed directly in front of the museum’s front door.
The public is invited to watch the planes journey across the street to their new home beginning at about 7:30 a.m. The museum will open an hour early — 9 a.m. — for the occasion.
The 787 Dreamliner, Concorde and Air Force One are now closed to the public until Feb. 14.
Museum visitors from now until the opening of the airpark will receive a rain check, good for admission to the airpark anytime after it opens on Feb. 14.
Why don’t they just fly the planes there?
