- This video is about my visit to the Naval Aviation Museum located on NAS Pensacola. This is one of the best aviation museums you will find! It's loaded with airplanes and from the early beginnings all the way to current times. You'll find many cool and exciting exhibits to explore and learn from as well. They have something for everyone here and yo spend spend half the day here easily and not see it all. I welcome you to follow along as I give you a general overview of what I seen as I walked around. Hope you enjoy and be sure to put this place on your list if you ever visit the Gulf Coast.

Adam, trust me wen I tell you that there is nothing harder in the world than making a museum video! I also have to tell you that you "Rocked the House" man! awesome tour! I cannot tell you how glad and happy I am to have found your channel and that over the internet, we have become friends!
See you soon (I hope),
Rich
Thanks Rich! I know going into the museum that it will be tricky to film because of so much to look at, read, and just take in. My approach was to not try and show every single thing there, but to try and give some general overviews of the whole place, with a few close-ups here and there. I think with that style it will be easier for the viewers to watch, and maybe they will want to come see everything for themselves.
I also try to pan very slow, which is something else very important with film making. I don't like fast shaky camera movements, and I'm sure my viewers will agree with me.
Thanks for the nice comments Rich!
Was that a Karma mount you were using? Makes for smooth video
Haha. You found the A-bomb! That cracked me up. You even got a pose with it.
Gkuljian And they looked to be of a size!
He gave it a challenge for sure.
You have to come to the air force museum in Dayton Ohio. Absolutely awesome.
The USS Itrepid prop is just a teency bit outside the capacity of Keith's Clausing to hand lap the tapered bore.......just 😂
Quite a piece of bronze!
Great museum, thanks for the video tour Adam! 👍
Definitely one of the best aviation museums out there.
Adam ! Ive been trying to leave you a congratulations on your silver play button video but comments haven't been working so leaving it here for now - CONGRATULATIONS-!! lol Its one thing for some music video or other mediocre c--p to get a lot of views, but you've done it as a machinist and that's really something. In this era of dying trades theres no telling how many peoples lives you've changed for the better by getting them interested in the machine trade either as a job or hobby. Youre not just entertaining people I think youre providing a valuable service that this country badly needs to get our young people coming back to the trades where we used to be so strong in this country. You've gained the interest, respect and generosity of people all around the world, and all these things are a big part of whats behind that silver play button as well as your hard work and solid personality that went into it. I and everyone else who watches are happy for you Adam, you really earned it.
When I went to School there for the USMC I pulled security for the Officers Marine Birthday Ball at that Museum. My duty was to pull Drunk Pilots out of the Display Aircraft. Had so many beers given to me that night LOL.
Thanks Adam. Keep these coming as well as the machine works.
Thank You Adam. Congrats on your mile Stone.
As I've discussed with you before, I went to flight school at NAS Pensacola. Thanks for sharing this. I need to get back down there. Saw my A4 and Tomcat... memories.
Adam,
That airship you saw that was stationed at Moffett Field . . . here in the Bay Area. Moffett Field is in Mountain View about 15 miles south of where I live. Back in the 1970s, a aviation buddy of mine and myself saw the Blue Angels at an air show at Moffett Field. Before the base was decomissioned, they had a fleet of Lockheed-Martin Orion P-3 submarine chasers. They kept an eye on what the Russians subs were doing. The end of the active runway was next to the Hwy 101 freeway. I drove past the base everyday to go to work. If one of those P-3s was landing and was flying over the freeway, you expected to see tire tracks on the top of your car! Thanks for the tour of the airbase.
Have a good one!
Dave
That is a great museum Abom. Thanks for video'ing it' I have a couple hundred pictures from 4 years ago but didn't shoot video. My Dad's former CO volunteers there. Spent nearly 2 days looking around that place. And something you didn't mention was that besides the planes hanging from the ceiling there is basically only a couple that they don't allow you to touch. Everything else there is out in the open. Not at all like other museums. Makes me want to drive down again. Handy having family a few miles from there.
21:25 Abom with the A-bomb
The more you show of your area the more I think that we will come down there for vacation. The museum was fantastic. We have a large display at Wright Patterson Air Base in Dayton Oh. This such a great change of pace, must make you feel proud of your area. Keep them coming Adam!!
They should pay you for the video Adam. I've been there before but you made me plan another trip back. Been to NAS Pensacola several times. Buried my best friend and co-worker at the cemetery on base five years ago. Beautiful place,
Memories for you mate ... RIP
Loved the guest spot on This Old Tony.
As long as us old guys are around that museum will be a place of memories. When we are gone it will be a place of historical interest. Either way ...Great video! Thanks for this one...Regards, Solomon
Just in case you might come to Texas, the USS Lexington is at Corpus Christi and the battleship USS Texas in near Houston. Both are well worth a look see and are great museums.
Just discovered your channel through Mr. Pete's channel. Enjoyed the museum and the visit with Mr. Pete too.
really well filmed and narrated mate.. loved it.. will never visit it,, this was the next best thing. Thanks!
Thank you Adam I would never been able to see these things.
Thank you so much for sharing my dad was a Navy fighter pilot in WWII and Korea, saw a lot of his favorites planes, including the Corsair his very favorite 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
The U.S. Army Aviation Museum is not too far away, in Fort Rucker, Alabama. That's another interesting place to visit. I haven't been there since 2008, though.
Hi Abby :)
Thanks for sharing Adam!
Other than your shop, it was the best stop on my visit down there. Fun fact. The F-14 at NAS was supposed to be the plane that our museum got when they retired. The carrier crew had even painted it in the show colors. But, the powers that be found that that plane was the last one to be arrested (landed) on the carrier, so they took that plane.
I've seen a few shows on TV that showed some of the workings of the hydraulic gear that is used for arresting the planes. That would have been some cool machining to have worked on.
Hello Adam, I have just watched your video for something I will not be able to do, unfortunately I'll health put a stop to that. I used to go to USAF air shows when I was young here in the east of England when they had the base here before they pulled out due to economic cut and the war on terror, ( i used to run out of our house every time they flew over, sometimes we could see the pilot with our eyes) the one plane which I has always Wowed me wast the B2 Sprite Bomber. I had the privilege to talk to the pilot in length, I was fascinated in how he got his wings including his fathers and grandfathers. Amazing aircraft and amazing stories he was able to talk about. Fantastic videography work. Thank you for your video which I have viewed 7 times so far. May you and your family are blessed with good health.
Went through the USAF museum in Dayton, OH in 2006 - Think Navy one should go on the bucket list now
Nice video, will have to remember next time in that area. Father was career Air Force stationed at Wright -Patterson outside Dayton Oh., his group helped build some of the displays in the Air Force Museum when they moved to the new building on old Wright Field (Pres. Nixon came to open the new museum). If you're an aircraft junkie or just like technology you need to visit, you'll be blown away by all the different aircraft and such on display.
Thank you Adam and Abby...that was a treat!
The Blues practice throughout the summer, each Tuesday (maybe Wed.?) @8am I believe, directly behind the museum, free of charge. Same exact airshow performance they do on their summer tour. The best part is, no crowds, the pilots wives selling memorabelia and the pilots meet n greet autograph session directly after the practice. Each aircract inside the museum is a pristine flying example that can fly, but they won't fly them because of their value. The mezzanine level with the retro WWII town life is really kool. Lunch at the O Club accross the street is really good and inexpensive for the general public.
Great video, Mr.Pete would love those cutaway engines
He visited the week before I went there.
Thanks, Adam i enjoyed that.
Reminds me of the National Air and Space Museum in DC which by-the-way also has an SR-71 (as you had in your last vid).
Thanks for the tour Adam.
Saves me a lot of driving.
Thanks Mr Abom79! I am well entertained by this video!!!
Really enjoyed the tour Adam and Hi Abby. Thanks for sharing.
Thanks for the tour Adam.
If you ever make it to Akron Ohio, you can see the Blimp Hangers where the Airships were made. The are so big that they even have their own weather. It can actually rain and have lightning storms in the buildings.
you rocked it adam good work
Great job, enjoyed having a look round somewhere I'm pretty sure I will never see in person.
That was really neat!!!, Some day, I would like to travel to the various museums of all types.... COSTLY though.... Tell your lady friend/wife/girl friend, that it is really cool that she goes with you to this stuff and doesn't mind you filming stuff, I would like to think that she realizes what a gift you have and that gift of being able to film whatever your heart desires, and show the world, teach the world. She must be one great lady, to not mind you sharing a small bit of your private life with the rest of us. Thank you for the effort on the videos, again... Side note, beings you are a machinist, do you or have you ever played with automotive engines or steam engines? just wondering....
I was wondering that too ..... :)
Great tour Adam Thanks for sharing. Enjoyed it a lot. regards from the UK
My favorite place to visit! I used to live on Davis HWY.
Excellent video Adam! Thanks for sharing.
Wow! it has change so much since I was there last. Thank You for a great tour. Matt C
Great video Adam. Lots of cool stuff. Thanks.
Hey Adam, my daughter and son-in -law took us to that museum and we loved it. Was neat seeing all the stuff you pointed out to us. Thank You..
Also, My dad served on the U.S.S. Enterprise. He was on it when Pearl Harbor was bombed...
Fantastic video Adam.
I really enjoyed seeing that.
Best Regards
My kinda place. I always like to visit museums when I stay over in a city.
Looks like an awesome place, thanks for sharing!
ABBY ---- THE " SUPER STAR " !!!
COOOL VIDEO !!
We see the Blue Angels out in the desert east of LA/San Diego from NAF El Centro. Impressive watching them practice.
I'd have fun there, thanks for the tour!
WOW thats one cool place thanks for posting best wishes from the UK.
Awesome video. Love the Blue Angels. We see them at Dayton, Ohio every year they are there. Keep the vids coming!!
Great tour, Adam, Thanks.
Great visit Adam - right up my street! Just wish I was closer so as to go myself.
Hey Adam, I just wanted to let you know how your video hit me in two different ways. My father sailed on the first ever voyage (shakedown cruise) of the USS Kearsarge (the see-through model aircraft carrier), and then seeing the lunar rover reminded me that when I was in high school, more than half a century ago, I got to speak to astronaut David Scott, who would later travel to the moon twice and become the first human to drive a motor vehicle on another planetary body [Apollo 15]. Very cool. By the way, you look very impressive next to the "real" A-bomb. After all, it's just a dud.
wow this is awesome place, thanks for sharing
That is a big museum! Thanks for the video Adam!
Enjoyed the tour Adam. I especially like the spacecraft displays. if you want to see more of that, come to central Florida and visit KSC! I'd be happy to act as your tour guide! Looking forward to your next adventure.
Hi Abomb, love your out and about videos. I saw the 2nd USS Enterprise (Nuclear Powered version) in Sydney Harbour Australia, when it visited here back in the 1960's, I was about 16 years old at the time, it was a huge ship by 60's standards, nothing like today's US Aircraft Carriers though.
Keep up the good work.
Thanks a lot; I've been through the air museum at Dayton, Ohio but never down there. Thanks for the tour. My Dad was a B-24 pilot in the Pacific and his uncle (my great uncle) was an aerial photographer in WW1. I flew u- control model air planes; the take-off was great but the landings...not so! Greg
That is one museum on my list to see..... next year we plan to make a sojourn to see it, and the NASM at Dulles
Great tour Adam thanks ! You've taken me somewhere Id never have been able to see otherwise, awesome-!
Very cool...thank you!
Cool video Adam. I have seen the Blue Angels perform many years ago when they attended the Shearwater International Air Show in Halifax Nova Scotia. Canada.
Great video, thanks!
Love this stuff
I'd like to see Keith Fenner straighten one of those prop shafts lol
Great stuff. You have terrific camera control. I'm a WWII airplane nut and really liked that part of the tour. The rest was simply assume.
Great video.Love the music nice beat ...
Abom, if you are driving up for the NYC CNC Open House and you have an extra day in your schedule, you really should check out the US Air Force Museum in Dayton (WPAFB). I guarantee you'll love it.
Oh HELL! I know you wont see this, but at the time this was filmed my grandparents were working in the restoration hangar out back. I then started working there under a Tool and Mold machinist as his apprentice. You would have enjoyed the machine shop there and seeing all the various challenges we have when restoring these planes.
Adam, less shots of you and more of Abby. LOL
Good stuff, looks like you two are having fun visiting the sites. Thanks for sharing. You are giving me some great vacation ideas.
felicitaciones adams muy bueno el video¡
Cool stuff Adam, Thank you. M.K.S.
Next time I'm in Fla I'll stop by there. I used to frequent the Wright Patterson air force museum quite a bit.
That's another killer museum in Dayton, OH. Been there twice and only saw half of it.
Yeah it's amazing. I live in Cincinnati and it's one of those museums a lot of folks never think about.
I've been there before Adam.
Truly a great place to spend a cold windy day in Northern Florida.
Isn't that place just absolutely amazing !!!!!
The USS Enterprise was one of the finest Essex Class Carriers in WWII.
Jack Young, the owner of Enterprise Rent ar was a flyer on the Enterprise during WWII and was highly decorated flying an F-6F Hellcat off the deck of the Enterprise.
He was awarded the Distinguished Flying Cross twice, something almost never hear of in the annals of flight, even in war.
Here's his Obituary from the NY Times after passing away at the ripe old age of 94
Very interesting man in the greatest struggle of good and evil in the history of civilization.
That such men have lived.
www.nytimes.com/2016/07/03/business/jack-taylor-founder-of-enterprise-rent-a-car-dies-at-94.html
U.S.S. Enterprise (CV-6) was Yorktown class. The Essex class came years later. The first Enterprise carrier was scrapped in the 1950s. The second Enterprise carrier (CVN-65) entered service in 1962.
Oops.
Thanks for the correction.
Adam , the first plane the blue angels flew was the f8f bearcat Ithought I saw the profile of one in the back round in the video btw great video Iwas in the navy and from time to time was a flight crew!!
Awesome place man,been there myself
If you ever get to Columbus, Ga you need to stop in the U.S. Infantry Museum. Well worth the drive.
+Craig L. Young Thanks, I'll keep that in mind.
Hay Adam, that sea king in hanger bay one is made in the town where I live....
way back when I had a small plane we flew in there and like you.......I was stuck by the tiny..tiny cockpits up on the second floor
they must recruit midgets for the air force
I actually climbed in the crusader and at 6'3" my knees were wedged against the dash and my ass did not quite reach the seat
You did good showing this place
Hangar bay #1 did not exist when we passed through
nice one
Thanks
Excellent vid Adam, Thank you.Btw, What is the Music at the end?
9:42 for a moment there it looked like the engineering station on the enterprise D from star trek
Looks like I have to put that place on my bucket list. Adam, is that young lady a new significant other for you?
Hello Adam, Did you manage to snag that bomb carrier and winch frame? Perfect for your shop projects although it looked like someone had sawn a few of the cylinders off that engine! Short hood. Very enjoyable video. Take care. Doug
I love the Blue angels. unfortunately the last time i saw them they where still flying F 4 Phantoms.
I am guessing the hanging blue angles collage shows just how close together they fly in real life. 400MPH 10ft apart! Not for me!
pretty cool man. hi abby
Hi, new viewer here. Was just wondering when the next moisturiser review is due?..
You need a rebuild of the actual USS Pensacola in your harbors at Pensacola. I´m into gaming and there´s a game called "World of Warships" and it features the USS Pensacola or as we like to call it the "PepsiCola" as a first built example of the of the CA-24 cruiser line.
I would love to come, but it´s a little far away from Germany... :-(
And Australia .... :(
Only 16 hours Sydney to Houston lol 14 from Auckland .... soon dammit, soon
Did you have the chili at the Cubi Bar ? It's the best in town.
no Adom your not a yellow belly Abom hahahahahaha
Hi Adam, you don't happen to remember what that 'plane' is at 11:28 do you ( or anyone ) ?
It look like an electric engine.... ?!
So jealous!
Adam I seen a TH-cam video about a hunted lighthouse there in Pensacola, are you aware of it and maybe you could go to it too?
