1940 Air Terminal Museum Begins Liquidation
The 1940 Air Terminal Museum is liquidating three full-size flight simulators, including a Southwest 737-200. Each simulator is priced at $20,000 and comes with associated equipment, but potential buyers must handle their own transportation and logistics. The museum must vacate the building by the end of June, prompting a quick sale.
- ▪The simulators include a Southwest 737-200, Beechcraft King Air 200, and Hawker 700.
- ▪Each simulator is priced at $20,000 and is sold as-is with no guarantees.
