I went there this afternoon with a local group. Here are a few that I took of the Cold War Hanger.

Dayton, Ohio at Wright Patterson Air Force Base.

Like the Smithsonian it's completely free.

Very surprised to see they already have a B2! I can (barely) remember the old B-36 bombers flying high overhead. The 6 prop engines were never all in sync, made a unique sound.

You got some really nice photos, I like the horizontal view (almost panoramic) about midway down. Nice floor level shots to see the aircraft close up and some great shots from a more overhead view, gives such a sense of the place. That last one made for a self portrait of sorts too.

I've been past Wright Patt but have never been to the museum, closest I've been was seeing Air Force play hockey at Wright State's arena.

Have you ever been to the Wright Brothers' original bicycle shop? or that small airport that has a replica of one of their planes? So much aviation in the area, this has got me wanting to see the museum.
