A piece inside an aviation museum best known for holding the Spruce Goose.

A piece inside the Evergreen Aviation & Space Museum, renamed the North American Aerospace Museum in 2026, whose main hall holds Howard Hughes's Spruce Goose. Like the Cosmosphere in Kansas and the Technik Museum Speyer, it is a collection about flight that keeps a piece of a land border — and in this case the aviation connection is real rather than incidental, because the first American response to the closing of Berlin was an airlift.

The Herald, describing the museum in June 2012, counted a piece of the Berlin Wall among the highlights of its space area, with an SR-71 Blackbird and a replica command module, and a photograph on Commons shows it there in July 2013. The museum, across Highway 18 from McMinnville's airport, took its new name in August 2026. Its website does not mention the piece, so whether it is still on show is not confirmed.
