I went here for the Oct. 05 Air show and this is a top notch facility. What a diverse range of aircraft. Let hope their new digs are even better.

everyone should know that one each of the JSF concept aircraft (Boeing & GD) are on display at this museum. A rare one of a kind thing to be able to see and photograph.

I visited the PRNAM last 25 February 2004 when I was in southern Maryland. The museum is the most extensive showcase of aircrafts I ever seen in my life. The tour to this museum is worth my stay in the United states. And rest assured that I would be bringing my relatives to see the outstanding displays when I come back in the United States. And whenever I have friends who visits Maryland & DC, I always remind them to drop by the magnificent Patuxent River Naval Air Museum. Congratulations to the people who made the collection possible. God Bless! troy

I visited PAX today, 06/21/03 and as usual I did enjoy myself very mcuh. The aircraft are well maintained and taken care of. Patuxent River Naval Air Museum should be on anyone's must see list. I have travelled to many museums on the East Coast, including the USAF Museum at Wright Patterson AFB. PAX is not the largest I have seen, but it is certainly one of the very best and I hope to see it again, soon. Thanks for a job well done!!!!

I commercially operate Lockheed PV-2 Harpoons for aerial firefighting. The PV-2 was flight tested at Patuxent Naval Air Test Center in 1943. Have been around these aircraft for twenty-nine years, and think their one of the best aircraft ever built. I would like to ask if you would have copies of the records from when the PV-2 was test flown. This is for my own personal history and love of the aircraft. Thank you.
