NASA Armstrong Flight Research Center is participating in the 2018 Los Angeles County Air Show March 24 and 25 with an F-18, F-15, G-III and a T-34 aircraft on display beside the NASA tent with exhibits and pilots signing autographs.
The exhibits include a photo booth with a Moon or Mars background, subscale research aircraft, and displays for Airborne Science in coordination with NASA’s Jet Propulsion Laboratory and NASA Ames Research Center, partner with Armstrong for SOFIA, both from California.
