    Great museum… too bad the lighting is awful!

  2. MEDIC! says:

    Anyone that gets a chance to visit, should do so. Stopping to read everything will easily take you 4 days. Some great history in that place.

    Been to two ceremonies in the Cold War Hanger since Jan. That place is awesome! If you’re at all a military history buff it’s a must see. I will admit that driving by I thought “ehh whatever” but after going to the functions in there I had to go back.

    First KCRF Blackout spotted in the wild! Thanks AM!

    I love the Natl. Museum of the U.S. Air Force, but I have to agree that the lighting is terrible in most areas. Anyways, regarding this picture, the patch holder has a good sense for firepower. If you can’t get an A-10, then an A-7D/E will do the job quite well.

    I went there on a family trip and it was one of the best experiences getting to see some of my favourite planes like the BF-109 and ME-262

    We’re working the lighting issue as soon as they finish up the 4th hanger.

    I am offended that you would post a picture taken in a museum. Those are solemn locations that honor our military.

    Don’t forget to visit the Presidential hanger. Museum was one of the best places to patrol on a slow weekend.

      About 5 years ago i sent a photo of that plane to the redhead I was dating at the time, told her it reminded me of her, she was less than amused haha. Great museum, I’ve been going there since I was a kid. Another good one is the new National Infantry Museum at Benning, not as big but still lots of good history.

    A derivative of the A7 should still be flying / fighting today.

    While military burned a lot of hours on teenage fighter airframes over last 14 years, A-7’s, A-10’s, and Super Tucanoes could have capable performed a majority of the air support needed in theatre.

    I visit at least once a year. If you haven’t visited the museum in Pima, it’s just as good, just a different style.

    I guess I’ll go delete and destroy the photos Ive taken at every museum with a military connection over the last 40 years now.
