Visit to Washington

In the Smithsonian Air and Space Museum: Amelia Airheart's airplane. Most of the exhibits in the Smithsonian are the real thing, not a replica. For example, they also have the actual X-1 rocket plane that Chuck Yeager used to break the speed of sound in 1947! It's hanging over the lobby of the entrance. The USAF donated the plane to the Smithsonian after they were finished testing with it. And they have the ACTUAL plane that the Wright Brothers flew in Kitty Hawk too!
