Have you ever visited the museum of the United States Air Force at Wright Patterson Air Force base in Dayton Ohio? If not, you might put it on your list along with the Smithsonian Air & Space museum, in Washington. The Smithsonian has several fantastic facilities and as an aviation nut it took me close to 5 days to go through it and I felt rushed at that. My wife wanted to kill me...... (snicker). Another fantastic place is the Planes of Fame museum in Chino California. You can actually walk up and touch the only remaining, flyable Japanese Zero (A6M5) which has a genuine Japanese Sakae engine. It was recovered from Saipan. Being able to touch that aircraft sent chills down my spine. Thank you for your recommendations here Charles, and they'll certainly go on my wish list, although at my age it's more like a bucket list. :-) So much to see and do and so little time remaining, but at some time I may well end up on your side of the pond!
