I took these several years ago when working in the nose docks. They are on the second floor in an office area on the West side of the nose docks if I remember correctly.
Better photographs can be found in the book Cold War Cornhuskers by Mike Hill.

Lincoln Aerosport
How do you get an airplane off the second floor in 1929?
A Lincoln Aero-sport in June of 1929.
F-102’s at the Lincoln Airport
These F-102A-80-CO Delta Daggers visited the ‘old’ Lincoln AFB in 1966. Not long after this photo was taken, the third F-102 , 56-1375, was in a midair with F-102A, 56-1383 (December 22, 1966).
Lincoln Airports in 1929
Three airports in Lincoln during 1929. Lincoln Municipal Airport, Arrow Airport, and Page Airport to the South. Page Airport had no specific runway. In the old days you just landed into the wind.
I see Oak Lake is there during 1929. I wonder when that was built.
It looks like the Southern border of Lincoln was South Street in this photo. The East border looks like either 48th or 56th Street.

LAFB Tower and Fire Station
Circa early 1970’s showing the Operations Building, tower, and fire station. The three door frames for the fire trucks are still there and currently hold windows for a lunchroom. The rest of the building has been added on with a large warehouse to the North and West, and is currently being used by Duncan Aviation. The fire truck doors that exit to the East are still there.
