Everybody who likes the topic Air and Space will love this Museum. There is so much to see. Special Tip: The Fly or Ride Simulator. Personally for me the best museum I ever been to!
Keep a good 5-6 hrs free for this visit if you want to check all the 23 galleries out. The free android / iPhone app is very helpful. Come at around 10, it gets very crowded in the afternoon.
It had been awhile since I have been down to see this museum but was worth the trip from Reston! Still one of the best with plenty of interactive exhibits and kid friendly stuff to do!
The "how things fly" exhibit is designed for kids but is really good for adults as it explains the physics of flight in a clear and fun manner. Pitch, roll, yaw, drag, lift, thrust!
This was probably one of the best museums I've visited. It is for all ages and the admission is free! I can recommend going here especially if you are into planes, like me :)
Fantastic overview of the history and innovations of aviation and space exploration. Exhibits are fairly adult but there are plenty of activity stations to keep the young occupied.
