1. Arlington or Museum of Flight?

CJ, I can't comment on Arlington, but we just got back from visiting Seattle
last week and can highly recommend the Museum of Flight.

Their World War I display is the best I've ever seen, and their World War II
display ain't bad, either. And, of course, seeing a Blackbird with the D-21
drone mounted is very cool, as is their new Concorde display. (Although if
you've ever seen one fly, you'll shed a tear to see it locked away in a
fenced-in area, forever flightless and silent...)

We spent six hours at the M of F (an hour in the excellent gift shop alone),
and saw everything -- but in a very cursory manner. I could easily have
spent all day, going back to actually read each display and soak up the
ambience, but for some reason they wanted to close!
