Museum of Flight

By Angela Brown, About.com

Although Seattle is no longer a one-company town, the aerospace industry continues to have a large influence on the region. Visitors can learn about the accomplishments of this industry at the Museum of Flight. The museum's exhibits cover commercial, military, and civilian aviation. Guests can see a large number of historic air vehicles, including the first Air Force One, a Blackbird spy plane, a reconstruction of the Wright glider, and a B-29 Superfortress.

Museum of Flight
9404 East Marginal Way S.

Note: Please do not confuse the Museum of Flight with the Future of Flight & Boeing Factory Tour. If you are interested in that tour, it is located in Everett, approximately 30 miles north of Seattle. The Museum of Flight is south of downtown Seattle.
