Meet at the Museum "Great Seal", in the Boeing Milestones of Flight Hall on the first floor.
About the Ask an Expert lecture series: Every Wednesday at noon in the National Mall Building, a Museum staff member talks to the public about the history, collection, or personalities related to a specific artifact or exhibition in the Museum.
Staff use lifts to help secure the Bell X-1 before lowering it to the floor of the Boeing Milestones of Flight Hall. The aircraft will be lowered and conserved as part of a larger project to renovate the Boeing Milestones of Flight Hall in time for the Museums 40th anniversary in 2016.
