Tucson's World Class Pima Air and Space Museum

Friday we opted for the 30-mile ride out to the Pima Air and Space Museum. Most of the route was on Tucson's famous bike paths. About 15 other LAB Rally participants joined the ride. On the way, we rode by the "airplane graveyard," which had thousands of decommisioned planes, many of which served in Viet Nam. It was very impressive to see.


The Pima Air and Space Museum is the largest privately funded air museum in the world.

The Museum maintains a collection of more than 275 aircraft and spacecraft from around the globe, including many rare and one-of-a-kind, and more than 125,000 artifacts. We were privileged to walk among the giants of our aviation heritage, including military, commercial, and civil aviation.

We actually got to go on board President John F. Kennedy's Airforce One! This plane was also used by President Johnson.

We could've spent the entire day here - but, alas, we had to leave with the group because we'd never have found our way home without the Ride Leader!
