MY Daughter would argue that the F14 and F4s are the most beautiful in the Museum.
I think the Shuttle is one of the best things there.
I've been to the IPMC twice...and to the Udvar Hazy Center twice.

Our own Anne McCombs works there (as a Restoration Specialist).
Every year she hosts some sort of special trip through the Museum.
Its the highlight of my visits to the IPMC...
LOL sorry Don, Pete, Alan, etc
This is one reason I want my Daughter to come with me to the IPMC.
But I have also never seen the orignal Air & Space Museum, so I want to do that.
And the Natural History Museum is what really sparked my Daughter's interest in going.
.....
Oh, and thanks to Anne, the Shuttle was
not "tantalizingly out of reach".
Standing inside the wheel wells was especially exhilarating.
Anne? when do i get to go in the cockpit?!
