National Museum of the Mighty Eighth Air Force

We went to the museum two days ago, and it was our second visit. We visited three years ago on a Savannah trip, but wanted to see if the B-17 was filled restored now. The museum is beautifully done, and very interesting even if you are not educated in aviation. The WWII section at the beginning contains interesting tidbits and a helpful outline of how the events unfolded through the late 30s-mid 40s. Be sure to go through the three theatre experience of being briefed, the maintenance of the fighter planes, and flying the plane. The only real downfall of the museum is that there is so much information that if you spend a long time reading every word at the start, you will be very uninterested at the end. Which is a real shame considering they now have a wonderful women in aviation area at the end of the museum. Definitely worth your ticket price.

Lots of things to see and a great outdoor area to stretch your legs after a long drive.
