How did the Flying Boat get to Oregon and the Evergreen Aviation Museum?
Disassembly of the Flying Boat began August 10, 1992 and concluded six weeks later with the plane in 38 separate pieces. Crews crated the propellers, engines, and smaller parts, shipping them via Interstate 5. They created a large opening in the dome, shrink-wrapped the remaining pieces and rolled them out onto an ocean-going barge.
