Visits to the Old Tucson Studios and Pima Air and Space Museum

While in Tucson we made two visits.  Nikki's choice - to the Old Tucson Studios where those western movies, featuring Audie Murphy, John Wayne, Alan Ladd and other famous cowboys were made.  It is an actual Western film set.  We attended a highly amusing stunt show and a musical review in an old saloon.






The saloon girls.

Andrew's choice was the Pima Air & Space Museum which is a private museum and home to some 300 aircraft.



The Bumblebee - purpose built to be the smallest plane ever.


Hurricane, painted as English ace Robert Stanford Tuck flew it.





Russian Mig 15.






American Sabre.




These two military aircraft fought each other in Korea.
