The world's oldest found Tyran**saurus rex is about to take flight.
Trix, a 66-million-year-old female fossil found in Montana, will board (http://nlintheusa.com/66-million-year-old-t-rex-fossil-fly-chicagos-ohare-international-airport-netherlands-beyond/) a KLM Royal Dutch Airlines flight from Chicago to Amsterdam on Tuesday. The skeleton will next move to the Naturalis Biodiversity Center, a museum in nearby Leiden, a city of about 200,000.
Trix even has her own passport, whose headshot accurately captures the mood of most people in long airport security lines.
