Have you ever noticed how when one person just doesn't get something, and the other person is explaining it & they think they are explaining it simply, they keep getting redder & redder and their voice gets louder & louder. Well that didn't happen, its easier than I thought (mostly).
We visited the Pima Air & Space Museum in Tuscon. It started out in 1976 with 35 planes in the dessert. Today it has 5 hangers close to 300 aircraft, a space museum, and lots more. We, ( I ) took over 200 pics of planes, but Kim says we can't put them all on, so it was narrowed down to 25, too many she says. So below are just a few of the many excellent aircraft.
They have military, commercial, commuter, personal, construction, cargo, helicopters, cruise missile launchers & well you get the idea. We spent 4 and a half hours wandering & talking to the many volunteers. All in all a great day, if you are in Tuscon a must see. Bring a bump cap.
NASA Super Guppy, cargo plane,
 |
| CH-54 SkyCrane |
 |
| NASA trainer. Goes to high altitude & then dives to induce weightlessness. Named the "Vomit Comet" |
 |
| B-29 Superfortress Oh did I mention that Kim smacked her head not once but twice on the small plane behind the bomber. Obviously a "bump cap" area |
 |
| Kim wandering down one of the many streets lined with aircraft, or she could be concussed from hitting her head so many times. |
