Steven F. Udvar-Hazy Center | National Air and Space Museum
![air_and_space-156be0.png](http://www.steemimg.com/images/2016/12/03/air_and_space-156be0.png)

On a recent <a href="https://steemit.com/journal/@lukestokes/have-you-ever-had-your-car-break-down-on-a-road-trip">road trip with the family</a>, we stopped at what is now my favorite museum ever. <a href="https://airandspace.si.edu/udvar-hazy-center">The National Air and Space Museum in Chantilly, Virginia.</a> Here are some photos from the trip for you to enjoy.

This place is HUGE.

Yep, that's  a Concord:

Virgin Atlantic's GlobalFlyer:

All kinds of old war planes as well.

This one was particularly interesting:

Interesting story about this one. Check out Simon Sinek's <a href="https://www.ted.com/talks/simon_sinek_how_great_leaders_inspire_action">How Great Leaders Inspire Action</a> Ted Talk to hear about why Samuel Pierpont Langley may have quit once the Wright Brothers did their thing. This was Langley's plane:

https://s16.postimg.org/54jdnc0lx/IMG_6814.jpg
https://s16.postimg.org/5ikpmxkph/IMG_6817.jpg

How bad ass is that?
https://s16.postimg.org/hdk0v0r9x/IMG_6772.jpg

Yep. The one that dropped the bomb.

It's cool to see the workspace where they are still restoring planes:

I remember watching this Red Bull event:

And my favorite, the SR71 Blackbird:

https://s16.postimg.org/6ae6una51/IMG_6797.jpg

Do you remember that old TV show Baa Baa Black Sheep?
https://s16.postimg.org/taku6z7yt/IMG_6796.jpg

More machines of war.

A few more to finish it out:

I want to go back when the kids get older. With a 7, 5, and 3 year old, we have to keep them moving or they get cranky. :)

Thanks!

Such an amazing collection. I've been able to visit the Air and Space Museum on the National Mall but I haven't been to this place yet. Thanks for sharing!
