UDVAR-HAZY CENTER
This museum in practically across the street from our house. It is the most amazing place if you are into anything that has been in the air. It even has a plane that detaches from the wings and drives away as a car. This is one awesome place!
Air Force planes from the different wars...
Concorde, Air France
This picture also shows how they displayed a lot of the air crafts...
By hanging them from the ceiling. Wow!
Lockheed SR-71 Blackbird
This is one intense flying machine!
So cool!
Space Shuttle Discovery
This was really cool to stand next to the shuttle that was actually in space!
One of the Apollo Command Modules
There is also an observation tower that takes you way up in the air like the ones at airports. The Dulles Airport is right next to this museum and you can watch the planes come and land. They fly right by the tower, almost flying right at the same level. We also got to listen to the air traffic controllers and the pilots talk to each other.
We all had tons of fun!
