A MUST SEE...take a simulator ride while you are there more

Everytime I get to DC, I stop at the Air & Space Museum. Fortunately when I went this time, the entire Museum was closed to the public and only open to my group (over 1,000 people). That was really cool. Next time I'm in the area, I'll have to find my way to Dulles Airport and the Steven F. Udvar-Hazy... more

This museum is a must see during your visit to the DC area. Working in the airline industry it holds a special place in my heart. But how can you not love aviation!? This Museum has it all, from early flight to the Space Shuttle and beyond. You will not be disappointed. You can lose yourself for hours in this... more

I was excited to see this museum, but have to admit that I was a bit disappointed. I guess I'm more of a space gal, so all the airplanes didn't do a lot for me. There didn't seem to be a lot of space stuff there, and apparently a lot of the big items, like a replica Space Shuttle, were... more

Visited this museum for the 3rd time - 1st time was in 1976, then again in 1998. Love this place. Never fails to inspire. Each time it has been different. Loved the picture gallery with paintings by the lunar astronaut Alan Bean. Can see why so many people visit this museum. Fabulous!! more

I have been to this museum many times, and it is always wonderful. This is the first time we brought our kids to DC and their first visit to the Air & Space Museum - and we went on Friday, July 3rd - it was CROWDED!!!! The museum is still wonderful with lots of great exhibits and the kids (5... more

I had a lot of fun walking through the National Air and Space Museum. It truly is one of the best in the world to visit (its the most visited museum in fact). You have to keep reminding yourself that most of what you are looking at is the REAL THING (the Apollo 11 command module, Wright Brothers plane, Spirit... more
