The Air Force Museum is just fantastic. If you ever find yourself in the vicinity of Dayton, you really should stop by.

I believe they open at 8am 7 days a week, not sure what time they close, and it's free.

We visited the museum last summer. The volunteer selling the tickets gave us a rundown on what to look for and see. I asked him if the alien’s remains ere on display.

With out missing a beat he said “I ‘m sorry sir but that display is still classified. “

You are right about that. I would recommend going to this museum even if you are not int he vicinity of Dayton. I drove out from New Jersey, and it was worth the trip!

The only disappointment was that the XB-70 Valkyrie was not on display. Apparently that hangar has not yet been built. When that is completed, I may have to go back!

The thing I liked about this museum was that all of the displays and written information was very matter-of-fact, without a lot of interpretation from some lefty history professor about what it all means. I remember looking at a display of an atomic bomb, and the caption explained that it was the casing of an actual atomic bomb, similar to the one dropped on Nagasaki, that had been dimilitarized. The display left it up to the visitor to figure out what he thought about that.

Well, except for the "personal demonstration" part...

Should we check our vehicle's status first? ;)

At least in the sense that there's no extra charge for the civics lesson.

No, thank you. Having loaded guns pointed at me and being handcuffed is not my cup of tea.
