Robins AFB Century of Flight Hangar

This is one of the best public decommissioned aircraft hangars in the world. Take a look around and you'll see a Thunderbird F-16, MH-53M "Super Jolly" Pave Low, F-111 Aardvark, RQ-4 Global Hawk, U-2 reconnaissance plane, and the pièce de résistance, an SR-71 Blackbird. Not just "any" SR-71 mind you, THE SR-71 that set the world speed record of 2,193 miles per hour! In 1976. And the record still stands. It even flew from New York to London in under 2 hours. Take that, Concorde! See all of the people in the hangar? They're listening to the pilots from those eventful flights sharing their war stories, beneath the nose of their aircraft. 

If you're thinking about planning a trip to the Museum of Aviation at Robins AFB to check out this hangar, it's worth mentioning that there are several other hangars and an entire field full of amazing aircraft, including an A-10 Thunderbolt, AC-130A Spectre Gunship, B-17 Flying Fortress, B-25 Mitchell, B-29 Super Fortress, B-52 Strato Fortress, B-1B Lancer, C-130E Hercules and a whole lot more! It's definitely worth the visit!
