Centreville The Steven Udvar-Hazy Center National Air and Space museum hosted its
annual “Innovation of Flight,” one of two events in which the museum attracts in excess of 15,000 visitors. Pilots were on hand to talk about the aircraft which were on display from 10 a.m. - 3 p.m. on Saturday, June 17. Visitors were allowed to walk on the tarmac on the exterior of the museum grounds which connect to Dulles International Airport. Fairfax County Police department’s helicopter was one of many helicopters on display for guests. Two of the crowd
favorites were the F-16, and the C-17 which were on display for an up close personal experience for the guests. The C-17 (top) was left open so visitors could walk through and see firsthand how U.S. Military Service members are transported. The highlight of the day for many was seeing a B-2 Stealth Bomber (bottom) do two flyovers above the museum's grounds.
