Eric--
O'Hare Airport in Chicago has a wonderful exhibit area filled with low-tech
units geared toward the younger ages. Control tower, airplane, baggage loaders,
etc., kids can "drive." Developed by Chicago Children's Museum, 312/464-7667.
Also in Chicago, Museum of Science and Industry has an air-control
exhibit/tower next to its aviation exhibition, which itself is housed inside a real 727,
inside the building. The person who directed that exhibition project is Joe
Shacter, 773/684-1414, Ext. 2418.
See you tomorrow at your sound exhibit opening!
