Below is a Russian/Soviet space capsule. It was actually used in the early 1990's.
Ryan and Jack in front of a lunar landing module replica.
The next several pics are of the boys in front of a scale model used in the filming of the Aviator movie about Howard Hughes. Above them is part of the Spruce Goose's wing. Next are the boys in the belly of the Spruse Goose (sorry not sure why it is out of focus, perhaps it was the glass right behind them messing things up). There is at least one level above where they are standing in the plane. Then is a picture of the Spruce Goose from up on an observation deck.
Below is a P40. "Pretty cool plane" said Ryan.
Here the boys are checking out my favorite plane as a kid--the SR-71 Blackbird.
They had an area for kids to play and have some hands-on experiences flying or rather pretending to fly planes and helicopters. The last picture of this series was of Ryan learning how the controls of an airplane made an airplane rise, dive and turn. Fun stuff.
I like this old plane. Check out the sweet machine guns
The boys are standing in front of a retired Blue Angel airplane and one of several tanks they had outside the museum.
Finally here is a pic of us in front of a F14 Tomcat.
Afterwards we stopped at a McDonalds with a cool playground. Lots of fun, and I even got to read the newspaper.

Darn! I only got one picture to come up! Am I the only one having problems with the pictures?
I hope so and I hope you can check them out soon. I have tried on another computer and Bridget looked at the pics from work on the office computer and had no problems.
Maybe it is a temporary problem.
Yep! Today it works. Those are some really cool pictures! I'm a nut for museums like that. Wish we were there, too!
