Seattle's Museum of Flight

[TBird1958]

Should anyone's travels take them to Seattle, I'd highly recommend our Museum of Flight as a must see, it's beautifully done with a separate wing of Boeing history, WWI and WWII fighter aircraft, a large covered hanger for bigger planes and an inside hall with aircraft hanging as well.

Here's a few shots from a recent visit, it was a pleasant way to spend an afternoon (instead of the mall!)

B-52 controls


Some of the WWI aircraft








Some one has a sense of humor, if you note, here's the Fokker and it's chasing a Sopwith camel


A famous little fellow on the wing.



WWII




Some kind of Hellcat, I think 




Hiyabusa, this one was put together using parts from 4 originals




Badass Corsair!

Big ugly fat f***er

Love the photos, and I'll try to get there next time I'm in town.

I visited the Lemay Museum, "America's Car Museum," in Tacoma a few years ago - it's also WELL worth the visit.  Fantastic stuff there!

Dream visit only... Alpha Golf is starting to look a wee bit shabby... watched her last flight out, the very last passenger flight, iirc...
