The MUSAL - Museu Aero Espacial in Rio de Janeiro have a very interesting collection, many planes are unique, like FW-58, and Curtiss Fleetwing...

Yes, that is a great museum and I hope to visit it one day.

The airplanes are in great condition too.


Thanks

There are several in Germany. Both Sinsheim and Speyer technic museums are excellent.
There is also one up by Ramstein AB that has quite a collection. Depending on which
one you go to, large numbers of Soviet aircraft.

Also, the Polish Aviation Museum in Cracow has a substantial collection.

I was fortunate and got to visit those, along with many others while overseas.

Yes, you can fill up 2gb memory cards!

Isaac, have you visited the Tokorozawa Aviation Museum. It is worth the trip for an aviation enthusiast. It is more than ten years since I went, but back then, on weekends there were lots of people, usually older men, flying gliders and rubber band powered planes they had made in the park outside the museum.
It is at Kokukoen on the Seibu Shinjuku line.
