Yesterday I had a look at Chicago Museum's site but didn't find any pics of the planesmen station.

Just looked once more - there's one pic that looks like there're leather seats with back rests?

I think the planesmen felt like sitting in a Porsche...

That's certainly not authentic. It's american luxury...



Or is it a replication of the planesmen station? The gauges and wheels look very weird...
