World War II German V-1 Rocket Spotted on I-5

There was a lot of staring going on along I-5 in Everett, Washington Monday, when a flatbed pulling a World War II German V-1 Rocket was seen going to its new home at Paine Field.

It is owned by Microsoft billionaire Paul Allen and was being moved from Arlington Airport to its new home in a former hangar. Allen began his Flying Heritage Museum ten years ago and two more of his planes will be moved to Paine as well, an American F6F Hellcat and a Japanese Nakijima K143-1B Oscar.

The new facility has 51,000 square feet and is scheduled to open on June 6th.
