There is also one on display at the main entrance to the San Diego Air and
Space museum. That one was the first one I ever saw, other than pictures.

There's also one at the Air Force Armament Museum at Eglin Air Force
Base in Florida. I was there a couple of years ago. Interesting
place.

I was there a long time ago - it looked pretty seedy then.

I think Wright-Pat still has a huge museum. I've been to the base but
not to the museum. I'll have to make a trip out there sometime. I
like the one at Eglin though, because you can get right up to the
planes. Other places have them roped off somehow.

Very nice museum last time I was there which was about 1976. In 1964, was a
little place and the B-36 wing sheltered the smaller planes.
