    My grandmothers picture is in the museum. she was the first stewardess for commercial air travel. She worked for Northwest orient Airlines. It was a shock to see the picture of her and the other first group of stewardesses on one of the plaques. Its the same exact picture that hung in her house for so many years. She was very proud of it and she would point out the other stewardesses by name and tell me about them. I of course took a picture of the picture and showed it to my mom and she was like, "yup, theres grandma" . Thought Id share that. Love your channel. It so relaxing.

    Since i first saw it in the early 00's, one of my favorite movies has been 1982's "Deadly Encounter". It features Pima Air and Space Museam in the later half of the film. It's amazing how much bigger it has become since that 1982 film. The ground used to be all dirt, all the planes were outside, and, from my research, the only building was a trailer that was a combo admissions booth, and restroom station. My, how far it's come.

    Great to see you visit the Pima Air & Space Museum in Tucson! We had the pleasure of going once, but the wind was howling so hard we ducked into the WWII building that has B-17 bombers and other aircraft, artifacts, stories, videos, and other displays. Friendly volunteers there help explain things or tell a story about something. It was great, but so big we're determined to go back. We really missed seeing most of the planes outdoors, so we've got a good excuse to return and spend the day there.

    That is one of the coolest air museums around. The B-52 is one of the most amazing aircraft ever built. Not only is it older than the pilots flying it, it has the most unique way of landing in a crosswind. Instead of landing one wheel at a time in a crosswind, pilots calculate the crosswind component, set the dial and the gear rotates to the proper crab.

    • @garyives1218
      @garyives1218 Рік тому

      The oldest existing B52 is stored there. One of two that were made with pods under their wing to launch the X15 experimental hypersonic plane. Amazing place!

    I've been to the museum a couple of times, it's one of the best collections around. Thanks for taking us on a virtual visit! The TWA Constellation at around 14:12 or so is one of my favorites--what a beautiful plane. Did you miss the the hangars with the B-17 and the B-29? If so, you have an excuse to go back (and take the boneyard tour, too) Have fun in the White Mountains--I would guess it's a little cooler up there 🙂

    Very nice video, Russ. At the plane graveyard nearby, there is a sign that says "Photography is prohibited, your cameras may be seized". That scared the hell out of me and I don't have one picture of any of those planes, not even in the Museum ... lol ! The U.S. sure knows how to treat "Aliens" (I am Canadian, not a Martian).

    I was hoping to see the O-2 16:09. Can wait till I fully restore mine and get her airborne. Was really hoping to see the PV-2 Harpoon. I worked on that one a a young teenager back in the early to mid 90’s. The museum had her on their back lot and let us gut the inside to make ours complete and in return we gave them all the parts they needed for the outside to get her display ready.
