    Museum Specialists Will Lee and Carl Schuettler clean Amelia Earhart's Lockheed Vega in preparation for the redesign of the Barron Hilton Pioneers of Flight gallery. The gallery is scheduled to reopen in 2010. In the background are the Lockheed Sirius Tingmissartoq and the Bell 206L-1 LongRanger II Spirit of Texas helicopter. The Spirit of Texas will be moving out of the Pioneers of Flight gallery and into the Jet Aviation gallery.
