Photos[edit]

The article is illustrated with one nice pic. Note that the example is not a full-scale plane, however, belying (sp?) the name of the tunnel, which was used for full-size planes of many other models. Additional photos and/or photo uploads could improve the article.

HABS or HAER photos may be available for this site. Search HABS/HAER here
NRHP photos linked in article are indicated as NASA owned and in public domain and can be used. Search NPS focus here for highest resolution JPG versions

Cost of tunnel[edit]

The article cites a cost of $36,900,000, with no specific year. However, that seems like an enormous amount, and in fact Nasa's page at http://www.nasa.gov/centers/langley/news/factsheets/30X60.html cites a budget of $900,000 (although the tunnel was built under budget). I assume this was converted to current inflated dollars, but without citing what "current" is the number has no meaning. -- Dan Griscom (talk) 02:50, 2 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Property records at NASA Langley show costs at just under $900,000. An inflated cost should not be represented as the cost, unless you want to say something like a cost of $900,000 which would roughly equate to $36,900,000 in 2013.
