Preparing myself for greatest day...ever.
« on: December 14, 2003, 10:02:12 PM »
On Saturday, Me an my Girlfriend drove to my fathers in house in Winchester VA (4 Hour Drive), Tomorrow we will wake up at 5:00 and brave the elements and board the MARC Commuter train in Duffields WV and ride into DC. We are planning to visit the Smithsonian Museums, Including the new Dulles Annex. You may have seen my post from a few days back, I have found out some more Info including they will be running a shuttle from the Air and Space to the Dulles Annex for 7.00 Round trip.

If you havnt heard about it there going to have basically the rest of the aircraft they cant fit in the Museum in Downtown.

I am very excited in seeing a few airplanes I love I've never seen up close, (Or dont  remember seeing)

Just be prepared for Pictures and maybe a few autographs!

And if your going to be there too, post up, and maybe we can work something out...



See ya in a few days!
There must also be a flyable computer available for Nefarious to do FSO. So he doesn't keep talking about it for eight and a half hours on Friday night!

You going to the Garber Facility? I was there a long time ago the day they were shrink-wrapping the Enola Gay. That was a long time ago. :)

Save money and take the Metro to the Annex. About $2.00 if prices haven't changed.

Good deal!  There isn't much to see in Hawaii wrt warbirds, so I was really excited last year to see the Planes of Fame Museum in Chino.  Next I'm hoping to visit the Udvar F. Hazy Center.. grand opening is today!  (sounds like you're going there too).  I'd love to see the Ta-152 in person, though I'm not sure if they've displayed it yet or not.  Have fun!

Be sure to check out the shuttle Enterprise.  It was originally supposed to be made spaceworthy, but they deferred due to cost, not technology.

Oh yeah SirL, revenge you'd probably get. AI is fun though, I can win most of the time. Like I said, how do you do it? Need IP numbers or is there someplace you go to set it up? Is there a time limit on moves like chess? I can spend 5 hours on 20 moves.

The spit1/Stuka matchup was fun:D

HIJACK!
