The Palm Springs Air Museum has another iconic airplane to add to its already impressive collection: the F-117 Nighthawk. On Saturday, October 3rd, a group of museum volunteers and enthusiasts welcomed the aircraft from Nevada. After the iconic stealth fighter, with its jagged edges and sleek design, was trucked across the Palm Springs International Airport’s runways, it was greeted with a water arch from the Palm Springs Fire Department as part of its retirement ceremony. One of only 59 produced, the aircraft, which is typically black, arrived with an aluminum-colored exterior since its radar-absorbent material had been removed as part of a demilitarization process from the Air Force.
