Constructed by the members of the Vought Heritage Foundation, this is a replica of the first VE-7 produced by Lewis and Vought and was nicknamed "Bluebird". It was donated to the museum in 2012. There were 128 VE-7s built for the US navy, the last ones retired in 1928. This photo is copyright © Bob Thomas, and may not be used or published in any way without permission.
