: I don't know about the general, but when I was there less
I was at the museum less than a month ago as well, right before the Gathering of Corsairs event. I had a great time and it is a fantastic museum. I talked to the docent at the P-61 who was a Black Widow pilot in WW2. He was exceptionally friendly and I had no problems getting around to take my pictures. I think that there sometimes are attitudes to deal with when you are around military personel and I feel badly that 2 people on the board here had negative encounters at this museum. You never kow how people might get stressed out by moving static airplanes around to rearange the museum. They should think about the stress involved in piloting the surviving flying examples of the same airplanes they have in the museum and then they might realize that they dont have much stress to speak of at the AF Museum. I did notice several comments about how proud they were that these airplanes at the museum didnt fly. Still, I highly reccomend this museum to evryone as a "must see" in your lifetime!
