I was a Boeing Field Service at SFO when this SP was being prepared for repaint after the mod was completed. Mrs. Charles Lindbergh was scheduled to rechristen the airplane as the original name given by PanAm was Clipper Charles Lindbergh. Everyone wanted the paint to be perfect. I contacted the paint shop at Boeing's Everett factory where this and all other 747s were built. The paint shop was able to advise the actual paint color mix along with the temperature and humidity, plus other details on the day this SP was originally painted. The repaint was beautiful. I was totally impressed with the records and assistance provided by Boeings paint shop. This SP has some unique history. What a marvelous airplane!

Glad to see this. The Pima Air and Space Museum is a national treasure and a fitting final home for this great aircraft

What are they going to do with the telescope?

Maybe someone has a empty mountain top - anyone?
