    Just off the top of my head, any plane the President is flying in is called Air Force One. Looks like another place to add to the destination list. Thanks for sharing another great video.

      Hi Stephen. That’s interesting, we didn’t know that! So I wasn’t actually being incorrect when I said that the tiny plane was air force one? Thanks so much for watching! It’s a genuinely fantastic place

    This is a great museum! We have been several times when Michael had meetings at Robins. It is even better when you have someone along who is knowledgeable about the planes. Very interesting facts on the B-52 including the singing. 😂. You also probably wouldn’t want to fly in the wheel well even if there was room. 😬. Another great aviation museum is the National Museum of the US Air Force in a Dayton, OH. Not that far up the road, but it takes days to go through the whole museum. Robins has done a fantastic job with their museum there and it is well worth the time and effort to go. Thanks for sharing it out!

      Yeah it was really good. We did feel like a tour guide (like at the udvar hazy) museum would have been great. If we are in the area again, we will go back. We kinda had to rush a little towards the end as it was getting late

    Loved the Airwolf reference 👌 The helicopter you were sitting in looked like a Huey. The pedals control the tail rotor, stick is direction and the elevator control in thr middle that you lift up and down controls the amount of lift generated by the main rotor blades (aka it takes you up and down). Amazing I still remember that from my Army National Guard days, lol

    Fun fact, the plane right next to the SR71 is the F106A Delta Dart, which holds the world speed record for a single engine jet - 1525 mph. Flown during the Cold War, at one point it carried a missle called a Genie that was nuclear tipped. The theory was one Genie could take out a fleet of Russian bombers with one shot...

    You might be able to get in the wheel well and ride but you would freeze to death first. The predisessor of the AC 130 was Puff the Magic Dragon "SPOOKY", the AC -47. To see the AC-130 in action Google Angel Flight. It's where the bring killed troops home. Will share more later.

    Great video, unfortunately you didn’t really know what you was talking about in it, but I enjoyed your narration throughout it🤣
    Word of warning if anyone is thinking of sneaking up inside an undercarriage be when the wheels were tracked up there isn’t too much room in the bay, if the wheels don’t chop you into mincemeat you’re more likely to freeze to death at high altitude👍🏻
    I’ve got a cousin who had to clean the inside of the undercarriage when this happened to some poor guy😥
