Saint Louis still has a great Corporate presence here in the Boeing facilities. The Prologue Room is a very nice aerospace historical museum which traces the histories of Douglas, McDonnell and Boeing. This particular museum is an all volunteer operation which is funded via contributions. The collection is growing and displays change so that it is always possible to see something new.

It is hard to believe that the same city that sponsored Lindbergs New York to Paris flight can no longer scrape together enough money to keep an aviation museum open. Am I wrong? Didn't you use to be the headquarters of McDonnell-Douglass?

In response to the question about the Bird N726N, the airplane is still giving rides at the Golden Age Air Museum in Bethel, PA.

This museum has reopened at St. Louis Downtown Airport in Cahokia, Il, south of HW 40 from St. Louis. It has a collection of interesting items of local interest as well. A room inside the hangar houses a collection of flight suits and helmets, props, communications gear, an ejection seat and many models. It is a small beginning with potential for growth.

The St. Louis Aviation Museum has closed its doors to the public due to problems with funding. It still exists as an organization and is currently working to develop a permanent aviation museum in the St. Louis area.

Hi! I'm looking for some information on an aircraft, the NC-726N, a beautiful 1931 Bird Biplane that was used to give rides in the St Louis area. It was known then (late thirties, early forties) as "The Nigt Bird of St Louis" and it was owned by Mr Ray Harris. Do yo have any information available? Thanks!
