The Museum of Flight in Seattle, Washington, US

The museum features a wealth of unique exhibits, including an engaging air traffic control tower at Boeing Field and “Style in the Aisle,” which shows off flight attendant uniforms from the 1930′s to the 1980′s.

The museum’s aircraft collection is also expansive, and even includes an Air Force One aircraft that carried presidents Eisenhower, Kennedy, Johnson and Nixon.

What’s better is that it could be about to get even bigger — construction is beginning between the Library/Archives building and the Airpark for a new Space Gallery, which could hold one of the three soon-to-be-retired US Space Shuttles.
