Spruce Goose VIP tour

SPRUCE GOOSE TOUR - for $29.95 up to 4 people can take a guided tour of flight deck and cockpit. Keep in mind the Goose is 98% wood, even structural members that look like medal, are made of wood.

Here's some picture...

Looking aft. Notice 6' mannequin at center right.  The flat surface above is where the wings come together.

Looking forward. The production model would have had clam shell doors for loading tanks and other cargo.

The wings are large enough to service the rear of the engines.

Engineers would sit here monitoring test equipment during the test taxi/flight.


Looking forward from the pilot's seat. One of first "heads up display".

Looking out the pilots side window.

Joan peeking out the pilots roof hatch.

Smile for the camera! Cockpit photo is included with the tour.


Views of  the wood structure.


The edge on the right is the outer skin of the fuselage.



Coming next, Heading south for the winter.
