The Evergreen Air & Space Museum is going to put in a water park and they are using this 747, which will be placed on the roof of the park and people will enter it then slide down to the water from the exit. It landed at the tiny McMinnville airport and they had to move it across the highway to the museum before dawn on a quiet Sunday morning.

  • Such a beautiful plane really nice

  • Yeah they are beautiful!  And it's amazing to think they're 40 years old!

  • That sounds like an awesome idea for a waterpark!! :O Never thought about anything like that before.

  • Yeah! It'll be really cool! I bet all the kids for 20 miles around are really excited!

    :P

  • That is a really cool idea for a waterpark.

    By the way I just saw this video.

    What I want to know is how in the world did the owner have enough money to purchase a 747?

  • Thanks David!

    LOL! He's very rich! His company has been providing aircraft- helicopters, smaller planes & stuff like cargo 747s to the government since I was a kid. Those government ties seem to have served us well from the cool stuff like the perfect condition SR-71 Blackbird to the chance that we'll get one of the space shuttles when they retire!

  • Thanks Dylan!

    I have such a hard time with the Youtube problems- it's like every now and then it shows videos from the last few days or weeks that I've already watched. Skipping through them I worry I'll miss one I didn't see.

  • cool footage and pictures!

    i saw this was added a week ago but i never commented on it. i guess i just never saw it in the subscriptions box.

  • Yeah, Evergreen's owner, who has aircraft doing various duties for the government-from developing a 747 air tanker for forest fires, to delivering cargos to isolated places in the world, etc., had a son who was an F-15 fighter pilot and he was the main force behind getting the Spruce Goose there and opening an air museum. After he died in a car accident his dad pushed ahead with the museum and it just keeps getting bigger and better!

  • Very cool (and patriotic) concept for a waterslide! :)
