SDAM not SDASM ?

Even though the museum has changed its name from San Diego Aerospace Museum to San Diego Air & Space Museum, it continues to use the Acronym SDAM instead of the longer SDASM. see the following references for the official museum web site http://www.aerospacemuseum.org/library/imageusage.html

"Fees for photocopies, print and film duplication and commercial usage of SDAM images/film apply"

"May I use San Diego Air & Space Museum (SDAM) images/film..."

"SDAM images/film are available for use, free of charge, in non-commercial academic work. Such use is encouraged by the Museum."

And additional link http://www.aerospacemuseum.org/organization/employment.html

"The San Diego Air & Space Museum considers its employees among its greatest assets. The Museum provides an opportunity for employees to enrich and develop their love of aviation while contributing their specific skills and talents to the mission of the Museum. Career opportunities in the Museum require various levels of training, experience, and education. Periodically a variety of entry-level and professional career opportunities may become available. SDAM welcomes and encourages diversity in the workplace and is an equal opportunity employer."

Interesting - all of their e-mail addresses end in sdasm.org . Perhaps the name change details have not been fully implemented in all paperwork yet? LewishamBoy (talk) 02:09, 17 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]

They also seem to have two websites - the one you list above, and another one (seems to be the same content):

http://www.sandiegoairandspace.org

Puzzling!

You will also not that most of the links found at SANDIEGOAIRANDSPACE.ORG link back to pages at aerospacemuseum.org

It would be interesting to know what their intentions are in terms of the acronym and domain names. Dbiel ^(Talk) 03:09, 17 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Cause of 1978 fire

Remarkably, the Wiki entry omits any reference to cause of the disastrous fire. A couple of years later some local residents said it was arson but reputedly the instigators escaped penalty because of their age.

Can anybody confirm? 184.190.150.60 (talk) 18:56, 30 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
