Pima Air Museum - user review
Tucson enjoys what must be the world's finest outdoors exhibit of military aircraft from the earliest and smallest to the latest and greatest. Don't confuse this air museum with the Davis-Monthan AFB boneyard museum that is also opened to the public for tour. In the Pima museum, most are American ai...

This was due to us taking ...
