Made my first trip to the Air And Space Museum in Chantilly, VA just outside of Dulles International Airport. The facility is huge with many more aircraft than the Museum on the National Mall in DC.
The "Holy Grail" of WW II combat aircraft (at least to me), the "ENOLA GAY" is the featured attraction.
I'll have more pics of the other airplanes in the collection soon.
One note of interest...... No B-17, B-24, B-25, B-26 or A-26 on display as of yet.

The Dornier was very cool. Never seen one up close and personal before.
Here are some shots of the P-40 and Corsair that are hangiing from the ceiling.
