Unfortunately I found the Tillamook Air Museum closed as they had just shifted to winter hours, but at least I could get some shots of their Guppy and of Dirigible Hangar B, one of the largest wooden structures in the world. Naval Air Station Tillamook only functioned for a few years from 1942, housing patrol blimp squadron ZP-33. Hangar A was destroyed by a fire in 1992.
