The Spruce Goose is currently located at the Evergreen Aviation Museum in Oregon. The stainless looking aircraft parked to the right, as viewed from the front, is a Curtiss-Wright A-22. It appears to be a single seater as only one person is shown inside, but it is actually a two seater. A photo link is included with the Spruce Goose wing tank in the background.

The Spruce Goose is now located in the Evergreen Aviation Museum, McMinnville, OR. The aircraft under it is a Curtiss-Wright A-22. Look at this photo and you can see the sponson of the Goose in the background.

You probably saw the Spruce Goose when it was located in the geodesic dome adjacent to the Queen Mary. If my memory serves me correctly, the highly polished aluminum plane adjacent to it was a mock-up of the Hughes H1 racer, designed specifically to break aviation records. I believe it was powered by a fully cowled P&W 500 series radial engine.

The Aircraft showed with the Spruce Goose was another of Howard Hughes airplane designs from before WW2. I cannot recall the name but it is in the Howard Hughes memorabilia site.

THE GOOSE HAS BEEN MOVED TO ANOTHER STATE WASHINGTON OR OREGON. HAVING NEVER SEEN THE SMALL SINGLE SEAT PLANE WITH THE GOOSE I COULDN'T SAY.
