    In 1982, the Museum acquired this 11-foot model of the aircraft carrier USS Enterprise. It was built and donated by Stephen Henninger, who spent about 1,000 hours a year for 12 years to construct the 1:100 scale ship. Highlighted in this image are the airplane catapults, the flight deck, and the island.
