Patrick had the day off for Labor Day, so we decided to go on an excursion. We went to the Udvar-Hazy Center--an annex to the National Air and Space Museum. It was basically awesome--a huge airplane hangar full of neat and historical planes, spacecraft, and other flying things.

We had so much fun. I loved the SR-71 Blackbird--my immediate response to it was "that's a sexy beast". It has the Shuttle Enterprise (used for in atmosphere tests and training)--it was amazing. The WWII fighter was really beautifully hung and "posed".

I also took some pictures of the jet engines--or details of them. I love the patina on this one. :D

How cool, I'd love to take a trip to this place as well. Love your instant response to the Blackbird, lol....that is a sexy beast isn't it, with all those curves & seductive power, hehehe ;) ????? · 2011-09-06: 17:06
