Washington DC air&space museum
 
Hi "folks",

just hve been at the W DC museum lately and hve to say I was stunned by the quality of wht is on display.

Everything I never had the opportunity to watch was there, right in a middle of the city, at nearly hands reach and ... for free (no entrance fees).

Let's make a short list of what nearly pulls out tears out of my eyes:
- X15!!!!
- X1!
- D558-2 !!!!!!
- Lulu belle !!!!!!!!
- Historic Me 262 !!!!!
- Skylab !!!
and much more.

Frankly, with so easy access and being right in the middle of a city, this museum is like a treasure you'd be fool not to visit.

Sadly, I hve no pictures to show you as my phone/camera (8 MgPix) falls down into the Potomac river the day after :-( . if someone want to share some images with me/us here :rolleyes: will be highly appreciated.:)

~S!

Another aviation museum in the USA worth visiting is the EAA Museum in Oshkosh WI.
