Folks,
I have been offered a lot of help here on the board and while on my first trip with the GMC. I am not nearly as knowledgable as most of you on the board, so I don't have much of a way to thank you. With that in mind, I will offer what I can.
I am a docent with the Smithsonian Institution's Air and Space Museum's Udvar-Hazy Center at Dulles airport. If anyone finds themselves in the area, please let me know and I would love to take you around the museum.
For those that aren't aware, the Udvar-Hazy center is the final resting place for the Space Shuttle Discovery, an SR-71, Concorde, the Enola Gay among others.
If you are in the area, drop me a line!

Bob,
That is very generous of you! I hope you're prepared, because I will take
you up on it (of course I will buy lunch).
I work for an airline and had an overnight there last Thursday night. I was
trying to decide between visiting the Air and Space annex again or Arlington
National Cemetery. My Wife reminded me that I hadn't visited her Dad in a
while, so off to Arlington I went. Good thing too, because I met up with a
friend who is the Commanding Officer of the Old Guard Army unit who provided
a tour that few have seen. Thank goodness he doesn't hold my Navy history
against me. Haha
