Restoration
activities are currently focused upon preparing and moving aircraft
and spacecraft to the Steven
F. Udvar-Hazy Center. The Museum cannot maintain a current list of all objects undergoing restoraton because artifacts are moving so rapidly in and out of the workshop. Below are restoration projects that could use your help!
