The Aviation Pavilion is an extension of Seattle’s Museum of Flight. I visited here in June 2023
One of the top attractions here is the Dreamliner. It is a real one and not a scale model.
They have even kept the engine open so that mechanical engineers like me can feast on the internal parts and working.
Inside they have kept on display the various parts like the CRT monitors and computers used in the dream aircraft.
Also, on display are the seating and a mannequin to give an idea of type of personnel operating the Dreamliner.
This is a 2 Storey aircraft, and a spiral staircase leads to the upper floor.
Note that in the US, the ground floor is called the first floor, and though this applies more to building on the ground it is worth keeping it in mind.
Here some more seating and more equipment are on display.
This view gives an idea of the enormous space that the Dreamliner holds.
Communication Equipment from several decades ago are also on display.
These and the other power equipment give an idea of the kind of technology used in those days.
Note the purely mechanical locks and latches, controls and switches on the box on the right.
No fancy electronics or LED displays, yet they built the dream aircraft with a technology primitive by today’s standards.
The visit to this retired aircraft remided me of the DreamLifter that I saw from the Boeing facilites in faraway Wichita in Kansas from my visit in 2008.
The Dream Lifter is yet another larger cargo plane that was built to carry the fuselage or the main body of the Dreamliner from Kansas to Seattle where the final assembly was done.
From 2008 to 2023, time flies by so fast, and watching such aircrafts that I hadn’t even heard of seems like a dream, no pun intended

Where to Stay
I stayed in the Green Tortoise Hostel that was studded with features, yet very economical rates.
