While his collections of rock `n' roll and science-fiction memorabilia spawned two high-profile Seattle museums, Allen has largely kept his collection of warplanes out of the public eye.
The Fi-103 in Allen's collection was manufactured by slave labor from Buchenwald Concentration Camp at the Nordhausen munitions factory inside the Harz Mountains in Germany.
Kurt Peterson, collection project manager, said the intent is to share that sense of history with the public.

Billionaire Paul Allen’s Flying Heritage Collection of war planes was a major attraction at this year’s NWEAA Fly-In at the Arlington airport.
But for the Fly-In, busloads of air show ticket-holders were shuttled to the hangars for a half-hour familiarization visit.
Local residents who are docents at the hangars encouraged visitors to return for the full tour, which includes each plane’s historic role and flying history, researched in detail as the display was assembled and the aircraft were restored to “out-of-the factory” newness.

Housed at the Arlington, Wash. airfield, this collection of rare World War II military aircraft is owned by Paul G. Allen, who opened the doors to public tours in 2004.
Flying Heritage Collection's painstaking process of restoring its aircraft sets them apart from all other aviation artifacts - each restored to a level of authenticity never attempted before.
From the wiring and paint to the canvas and engines, these planes are authentic in every detail, using—with rare exceptions—only materials true to the period of their original construction.
