You know for a second I thought this thread was referring to yet another sequel for the Ben Stiller movie series, 'Night at the Museum' and now 'Night at the Smithsonian'.

Hey that would be a great idea if they keep the series going! I'd just love to see the look on the Generals face as Shoo Shoo Baby and the entire WW2 gallery takes flight!!

:lol:

Did the night tour several years ago with a friend from Wright-Pat. Had a blast going all over the place. The big thrill for me was getting to sit in the 262 cockpit....for her it was going onboard the B-36. Definately worth the time and effort to go.

Here are the planes that will have open cockpits for viewing on May 15th for the Night at the Museum:

B-24 Liberator, SR-71 Blackbird, P-61C Black Widow, RF-86F Sabre "Haymaker, UH-19 Sikorsky "Chickasaw", AC-130A Spectre and the F-22A Rapton.

Keep in mind that it is on a Friday ... anyone wanting to see the Restoration, the tour is also on Fricay afternoon.

If really interested, I would call quickly to make a reservation for the restoration and then you can do the Night at the Museum the same evening.
