The Enola Gay is history. Sputnik is history. Lindbergh's plane is history.
A Jap Zero is history, An Me-262 is history.

And the Japanese (we aren't supposed to say Jap any more) Zero is
indeed on display at NASM, downtown if not at Udvar-Hazy.

Indeed, enemy aircraft have always been strong draws at aviation
museums, and not just in this country.

all the best -- Dan Ford
