Air Force Museum (part 2)
The moment you step into the hangars, you can just feel the history of this place. It oozes out of every corner of the building. I mean, they have one of the first planes sold by the Wright Brothers, for crying out loud!
They also have several capsules from the different space missions (Mercury, Gemini, Apollo). So their collection spans from the dawn of human flight to the space age…and beyond.The kids in front of the Gemini capsule:
And it always amazes me how much of the modern technology they have on display. Of course, I’m sure most of the high-tech, top-secret stuff is in the interior, it’s still amazing that they have planes like this on display where an average person like me could walk up and take a picture of it.
B-2 Stealth Bomber. I like this picture because it kinda looks like it’s flying in the darkness.
F-117 Stealth Fighter
F-22 Raptor – I saw a picture of President Bush standing on a platform the previous day right about where Aiden is standing.
Predator Drone
The updates aren’t done. Check back later for more – yes, even more pictures from our experience at the Air Force Museum.
