Tomcat Sunset at the National Air and Space Museum


Recommended Posts

Posted (edited)

Yesterday I went to the Tomcat Sunset at Udvar-Hazy, and they have a F-14D-R- which is on display now. This F-14D-R- is actually credited with a kill (a Libyian MiG-23). I just thought that I would share some of the pictures. Enjoy! (Sorry, some of them are blurry) :sorry:

 

Head on shot

The closest is a video camera, farthest is a heat sensor

EDIT-I got rid of those registered symbols. (I didn't realize that it would be a ®!)

It's the Smithsonian Udvar-Hazy Air and Space Museum at Dulles International Airport in Dulles, VA. It is about twenty minutes outside DC (depending on traffic), and is a great place it visit if you live close by or happen to be in town.
