Scott,
Even if you don't get any dimensioned drawings from any archives, you could always take a laser "tape measure" with you to the Museum of Flight and get dimensions. I don't think it would do any damage, and the place isn't crawling with docents or security. And as it's easier to ask for forgiveness than permission, I'd just go for it, if it were me... If you make it up to Seattle, there's a period Gemini mock-up at the Pacific Science Center, near the base of the Space Needle. It used to be one of the central attractions, with a line of kids waiting to climb up and sit in it. I got my minute or two of seat time back in about 1967. But now it's in a less-visited corner, with the access steps still in place. Bring some corned beef sandwiches and waste disposal bags, and you could probably sit in it unnoticed until you break a Gemini endurance record Dale |
