To: Eric in the Ozarks
I'll add Seattle to my list. Aviation museums have become a bit of a fetish for me. I have been to the Warner Robbins Museum, both locations of the Smithsonian Air and Space Museum, the museum in Galveston (forgot the name, but all their birds were flyable), the RAF Museum north of London, The Imperial War Museum, The Mighty Eighth Museum in Savannah (they have an outstanding staff there, mostly veterans), the National Atomic Museum in Albuquerque, and various static displays worldwide. Tuscon and Dayton (and now Seattle) are on my to-do list. When it comes to old airplanes, am just a big kid.

There's an itty-bitty museum at the general aviation airport in Redwood City, if you're ever in the Bay Area. I went there a couple of years ago. Among other goodies, there's a cutaway of a Wasp engine from a B-36, which is why I bring it up in this thread.
Also, you need to get to the Florida Panhandle and hit Pensacola and Eglin.

The Spruce Goose in Oregon is pretty cool, too.

The Seattle museum has an early SR-71 Blackbird spyplane, among other interesting exibits.
