点评:Excellent outing to the Steven F. Udvar-Hazy museum, where one can only stand in awe while gazing upon the actual aircraft that made history. Rode the Metro (Silver Line) from Farragut West station to Innovation Center station (~55 minutes and $6.75/person) then an Uber to the museum. Museum is free and was not crowded on a Thursday and we did not have to wait on any activity or exhibit. A brand new F-117 Stealth Fighter had been added to the collection the week before (guides made sure to mention it). Must-see exhibits include the Space Shuttle Discovery, the Concorde, the Enola Gay, the SR-71, the F-117, the F-35, the F-18, and the many WWI and WWII warbirds that don't fit at the Smithsonian Air & Space Museum on the Mall. Also recommend taking the elevator to the old Control Tower, where you can view the runway activity at Dulles Airport and listen to live Flight Controllers' chatter. The facilities were impeccable and the staff was friendly and extremely helpful.
翻译:今天参观了史蒂文·F·乌德瓦尔-哈齐博物馆,真是一次极棒的体验!看着那些创造历史的真实飞机,令人肃然起敬。我从法拉格特西站乘坐地铁银线至创新中心站(大约55分钟,票价每人6.75美元),随后叫了一辆Uber前往博物馆。博物馆免费开放,周四这天游客并不多,我们无需排队就能参观各个展厅和展品。一周前,馆内新增了一架全新的F-117隐形战斗机(讲解员们特意强调了这一点)。值得一看的展品包括“发现号”航天飞机、协和式飞机、“埃诺拉·盖伊”号轰炸机、SR-71侦察机、F-117战斗机、F-35战斗机、F-18战斗机,以及众多因空间有限而无法陈列在史密森尼国家航空航天博物馆里的第一次世界大战与第二次世界大战时期的军用飞机。此外,建议乘电梯前往旧控制塔参观。在这里,您可以观看杜勒斯机场的跑道运行情况,还能收听空中交通管制员们的实时对话。这里的设施无可挑剔,工作人员也友好热情且乐于助人。
