National Air and Space Udvar-Hazy Center

leave a comment »

I Visited the Udvar-Hazy Center (UHS) at Dulles today, and it was phenomenal. My favorites today were the Bell 47, and Betty Skelton’s Pitts Special.

“The Steven F. Udvar-Hazy Center near Washington Dulles International Airport is the companion facility to the Museum on the National Mall. The building opened in December, 2003, and provides enough space for the Smithsonian to display the thousands of aviation and space artifacts that cannot be exhibited on the National Mall. The two sites together showcase the largest collection of aviation and space artifacts in the world. ”

It’s well worth the trip.

Fly Smart,
