Field Trip: The Museum of Flying

Model of Wright Brothers' plane

Today we went to a birthday party for one of my daughter's little friends. His party was at The Museum of Flying. The museum is filled with all sorts of airplanes and airplane-related exhibits. There are a couple of cockpits, as well as a cockpit simulator, in which children can pretend to be pilots.

My daughter loved being in a cockpit, flipping switches, pulling levers, turning knobs, and steering, and I loved listening to her talk to herself on her make-believe flight.
