This boys reminds me of Dane. He has had a passion for airplanes since he was 18 months old! He has always wanted to be a pilot, and now he wants to be in the airforce.
After we left Mt. St. Helens we continued to drive North. I was hurrying against the clock. I knew that we needed three hours to see the Museum of Flight properly. But I also knew that we only had about 1 1/2 hours max before it closed.
We arrived and of course, the children didn't know we were going to go. I don't like to tell them my plans until I know if I will actually get there.
The older boys went into a simulator of an F15, while the little boys enjoyed a ride in a Blue Angel.
They also went to a children's area and rode airplanes and controlled other planes with proper controls and foot pedals. It was very well set up.

Dane's favourite area of the Flight Museum was the World War fighter planes. It showed planes from World War I and II - Friendly and Foe.
As well as the planes there were other displays. Below shows the symbols that the Jews had to wear during the war.
