To say the place is awesome is an understatement.

When I went a few years ago, they had Spaceship One under wraps for an unveiling.

Sweet Jebus, they have a stunningly-beautiful P-61, which immediately caught my eye in your pics. That's a rare bird. I had no idea it was on display. There's one under restoration about an hour north of me.

Anyway, great pics. I bookmarked the link and fully intend to peruse the photos in detail.

Oh, I was there. It's probably the best space museum ever.

Yeah, I was there last April before I headed back to Michigan for graduation.

It was awesome.

Should I post my own pics?

It's an awesome museum. I'm lucky to live so close to it.

(I already have tickets to see TDK in the IMAX there.)

Beautiful machines. What's the museum called?

Awesome pics.

You're pretty good with a camera.

I can't seem to inline it, but I like IMG_7136 - first photo in the linked set - for the colors. It's too bad you lost the bottom of the radiator, though.

Udvar-Hazy was the one place I desperately wanted to see but never managed to while I was in DC.

National Air and Space Museum Steven F. Udvar-Hazy Center.

On the pics, my fave is that shot of the Enola Gay.
