I recently visited the Strategic Air & Space Museum in Omaha, NE. In their restoration hanger they were working on a Grumman Albatross seaplane just like Jimmy's. It was stripped down to its aluminum skin and it look like they were overhauling the engines. The hanger was sealed off so I snapped a few pictures through the glass from the snack bar. If you are a Propellerhead as well as a Parrothead the museum is a must see!! Tons of planes (all indoors) from a SR-71 Blackbird suspended from the ceiling in the lobby to a B-52!
