SciTech Tuesday: A Closer Look, Warbirds Pound for Pound

The installation of the B-17, B-25, SBD Dauntless, F4U Corsair, TBM Avenger, and P-51 Mustang in the US Freedom Pavilion: The Boeing Center provides an incredible example of engineering design.  Over 70,000 pounds of aviation history are dramatically displayed thanks to the expertise of LA ProPoint, who rigged the aircraft using cable assemblies with specialized hardware.  Here is a closer look at this incredible engineering feat.

Watch as engineering and physics come to life with this dramatic timelapse of the airplane installation.
