| Presidential 'Props', USAF Museum Heres a few shots from the Presidential section at the USAF Museum in Dayton. I've only included the prop jobbies in this lot. Didnt take too many this time as I was getting 'kinda moist' at being right next to the Experimental section with Valkyrie in it and couldnt wait to get in there and see that bird !!!!!

| And neither will your nostrils if you plan on visiting. Some of those planes had a peculiar odor to them, but it was still pretty cool to go there. Next door is the experimental aircraft hangar. You have to take two trips to see everything, it's just awesome. I recommend it. |
