Mecca for all space/flight geeks - user review
The Air & Space Museum extension located near Dulles airport is a bit of a drive to get to, but well worth it. Admittedly, it's boring for anyone you drag to it that isn't completely e...

Smithsonian National Air & Space Museum, Washington, D.C. - IgoUgo Reviews
My favorite parts: The WW II room, with some of the planes from the war, and The Air at Sea area, which is set up like an aircraft carrier, including a mock-up of a conning tower. There is one room that describes how planes work. In this area, visitors can use computers to design their own aircraft....

Latest reviews of National Air and Space Museum, Washington, DC, DC
We went on May 30th 2007 and found it was way to crowded with all the schools groups in the building. Around 4PM they started leaving and then it became bearable. Now mind you that I went with my two children, ages 3 and 6; so I'm not against children. It's just that you cannot spend any tim...
