USAF Museum at Wright-Pattersen AFB in Ohio is simply awesome. ME109, FW190, JU88 or HE111, Spit, Mustang, P47, P38 all in one hangar.

If you are ever near Seattle, WA check out the Boeing Museum of Flight. They have several great displays from WWI and WWII. There's for sure a Zero, ME 109, Corsair (HUGE lol!), P-38 and a few others in the WW wing. Fascinating place, you can spend hours and hours in there. Took the kid a few months ago (he's eight) and he's been on a WWII airplane kick ever since

Great place, and right on Interstate 5 at Boeing Field. You can even get rides in a biplane, some random warbirds, and even the B-17 when it is in town!

That place is very cool. Growing up in Ohio, we went there quite a bit.

I've been to the National Air/Space museum. Unfortunately we were in a rush and had to leave pretty fast. It was cool but I would have liked to look around a lot more.

2 years ago I went with my Grandpa to PanzerMuseum Munster in Germany (a tank Museum, for who aren't that clever) and He founded out that they Got a vehicle (SDKFW251/D) from His Unit. Was a Fantasic day.

BTW it's also nice to see Tank and Aircraft enthousiast on one place. even if this is an aircraft game..?

BF109 and Panther all the way!!

The Panther had so much potential (if not for reliability problems), I would love to see one in person!

All we have on display around the states are stupid Shermans, well at least the places I have been.

The Germans were simply too good at building tanks that the King Tiger (I'm not entirely sure though, could be something else) was simply too expensive to manufacture because of all the expensive systems installed in it.
