USS Midway (03/19/09)


On day 1 of our SanDiego trip we visited the USS Midway Aircraft Carrier museum. It was awesome, with plenty to look at (we spent the whole day there) and almost everything is hands on. We totally recommend it.

You get to explore all the levels of the ship. Lower decks...

The hangar deck, with many cockpits to climb in...
The flight deck had many, many aircraft to examine. It was also insanely windy!
And finally up on the "island" where they "drive" the ship ... (you can spot Jakob in his maroon ASU cap, above the "E")

The view of the flight deck from the "Island": Coronado bridge in the background.

Jakob got to sit in the navigator's seat.
