Eglin AFB armament museum pt.1

I drive by this museum everyday and decided to get a few snaps one day. Sorry for the low quality, these were all taken with my mobile phone

The engine has a switch (seen on the information board) that you can turn on to see the engine components in motion!

Part 2 is outside the museum...
My specs... A hard drive, motherboard, graphics card, some memory, a keyboard, mouse, and monitor - in other words, nothing special.

That first shot made me laugh out loud.  Very clever.   ;D

If God intended aircraft engines to have horizontally opposed engines, Pratt and Whitney would have made them that way.

I'm guessing that yellow thing in the back is a pulsejet? :)

Good stuff!!!

I have to get back there someday and see the 'new' digs.  Last time I was there it was the in the old gym buildings....we sneaked in after closing one night and got to "play" with a lot of the stuff.  Three weeks later they condemned the building.

We all had a big laugh as we left to go back to our home base that the base XO was blamin' us BB stackers for wrecking the place.  We told our -130 driver to step on it!
