In addition, I recommend the site in Dayton, Ohio.

I will if I ever go there, but it’s unlikely that I’ll have a reason to go to Ohio.

If you’re ever in Tucson, AZ, I highly recommend the Pima Air and Space Museum. Lots and lots of military aircraft to walk around and look at. Unfortunately, the Davis-Monthan AFB boneyard tour was discontinued during COVID.

My dad told me he grew up next door to their sister and would see Orville sitting on her porch. This was in the 20’s-30’s.

My career spanned 46 years. from a Piper J-3 “Cub,” to a Piper “Aztec.
In between I flew USAF then UAL, US Coast Guard Auxiliary.
I, too, recommend Dayton, (The Air Force Museum). If you can, try to arrange a visit to the Wright Paterson AFB, on Base Museum. This museum has all of the “Presidential , Air Force ONE planes except current ones and President Ronald Reagans,” and many experimental ones as well.
