The Museum of Aviation at Robins AFB, Ga., has started construction on its new World War II hangar. The museum expects the $4 million, 60,000-square-foot facility to be completed by mid-2008. It will house some 16 World War II vintage aircraft and displays featuring the Flying Tigers and Tuskegee Airmen.
