THE MOFFET FIELD MUSEUM - SUNNYVALE - CALIFORNIA
1/520 ZRS-5 USS Macon by Bill Wissel
This was a truly interesting visit kindly guided by aviation experts Jim Lund, Roger Logsdon, and Herb Parsons. Moffet Field was the home of ZRS-5 USS MACON and its huge hangar of unique architecture witnesses the golden era of US NAVY airships and blimps. The Museum strongly highlights that story among other periods and there's a lot to learn about. Highly recommended!
