Being an X-Pilot...  I love old and new aircraft..  I thought there was probably a bunch of you out there that would agree...These are the real thing, they are not models....  I turst you enjoy...

Come fly with me...

    These are neat planes, Kerry! The one of the inside panels....no way could I do that! Too much stuff to keep an eye on! Is this a museum in SD? Busy works at one, and they have new planes in there all the time. Do these always stay, or are they swapped out? So, you being a pilot, do you have your own plane......

    Your right SG, ...I'm missing both my little toes I guess... Ist flight..12 sec. Dec. 17th 1903 and on Sept. 21st 1908 they reached a air time of 1hr 31mins and 25sec...a record at the time...I find it hard to balance with out my little toes...and I can't have the little piggy go weee weee weee...all the way home either.

  • lifeonfilm
    Thx for the shots! I've been interested in aviation since I was little. Reminds me of the science and aviation museum in DC. My HS aerospace instructor was a bomber pilot in WW2 and a relative was a fighter pilot stationed in England.

    what a cool post! Love those old planes...really liked the background in #11, you could almost believe it was real--and the poor guy in #12 nearly lost his head! So what is the name of this museum--I wanna go there next time I'm in SD (hopefully next summer) and drag my buddy along.

  • tempestskye
    You got some good shots. That museum is really awesome. I was just there last spring...my friends and I were turned loose at the Smithsonians for 4-5 hours during a school trip and spent 3/4 of our time in that museum...we didn't make it to any of the others.
