"Tom Sixkiller" wrote in message ... "Jay Honeck" wrote in message news:FeGKb.751015$HS4.5883554@attbi_s01... In another post about the fabulous new Udvar-Hazy Center (part of the National Air & Space Museum), frustration with not being able to fly into this terrific new facility was evident. I personally find it appallingly ironic that museums which purport to glorify flight are not accessible by aircraft, despite being located on an airport. Which brings to the fore a question: How many aviation museums really ARE accessible by light plane? I know, for example, that my two favorite museums (the Air Force Museum in Ohio, and the Strategic Air Command Museum in Nebraska) are NOT accessible by aircraft. Champlin Museum at Falcon Field in Mesa, AZ --until they packed up and moved :~( 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. http://www.p38.com/glaciergirl/default.html |
