Can You Name an "Aircraft-Accessible" Aviation Museum?

Also, the New England Air Museum in Windsor Locks, Connecticut, Bradley
Intl
Airport (KBDL). http://www.neam.org/cont_about.htm Inquire FBO about a
courtesy shuttle to the museum. Open daily.

I cannot get to this one right now. The DNS servers appear to be up, but
are not providing records (beyond glue) for this domain.

I seem to recall seeing a building labeled such when I was there. But what
was the name?

And - speaking of that neighborhood - isn't there something at Millville?

The Cape May museum is called the NAS Wildwood Museum. It is small
but nice. In addition to the aircraft, they have a number of engines
of various types that can be viewed up close (radials to jets). Worth
a visit if you're in the area. http://www.usnasw.org/

It's the Wildwood Naval Air Station Museum. It's down the other end from the
FBO. Here's a link: http://www.usnasw.org/

I don't know about Millville. I don't live down that way. Those are just
stops along the way to other destinations.

A big thing in these woods was to fly to Middlesboro, KY and see Glacier
Girl, the P-38 Lightning melted out of the deep Greenland Icecap, where she
lay buried since the forties. I take it she's still there, one of only a
half-dozen remaining Lightnings.

The Palm Springs Air Museum site says Glacier Girl will be flying later
this month (Jan 24th): http://www.air-museum.org/ and check the events
page.

The REAL question is: "Will Glacier Girl be flying into OSH 2004?"

I hope they make it this year -- they really disappointed a lot of their
supporters last year.

There is the Thomas P. Stafford Museum at the Weatherford, Ok.
airport, (F91). It is a very nice, fairly new, smaller sized museum
that is accessible from the G.A. ramp. In case you didn't know,
Stafford is a famous astronaut and Weatherford is his home town.

Here's a link to their website:
http://www.staffordairandspacemuseum.com/

Here's some photo's of displays:

You can see everything in a few hours. It is well worth the trip if
you are in the general vicinity.

Another great one is:

The Canadian Warplane Heritage Museum located at the Hamilton Airport CYHM
in Ontario, Canada (Near Buffalo NY).

A Brazilian judge has announced that US citizens will be fingerprinted and
photographed on entering the country. Judge Julier Sebastiao da Silva was
reacting to US plans to do the same to Brazilians entering the United States.

Well, the list would not be complete without including the first
living air museum at the Wright Brothers National Memorial
(http://www.airnav.com/airport/KFFA). The experience of flying into
Kitty Hawk and walking 300 yards to the memorial is like no other.
