Often intended going there but never actually got around to it.

The V-2 rocket engine is very interesting. I would love to take a closer look at that.

Nice pics.

Another one is the Midland Air Museum at Coventry...

Good pics AJ, often thought about trekking down the 180 to this museum.

ACK! That's a Sea Vixen! Always wanted to take a close look at one of those. I have a thing for twin tail booms.

The Air-Zoo in Portage, MI is a temple of sorts for me. I really need to go without the kids though.

Caution, the above link is to a google images page so is pic heavy.

They have a Vampire inside, too. Just to get you even more wound up with your twin-tail boom fetish

I've not been, although it's probably the closest one to me. Just having a look on their site now...
