There is a fly-in of B-29's every year at The Air Force Museum. They had one cut open that people can walk through. If you ever come to Dayton, you MUST allow at least 2 days. Admission is free!
I was in the crowd when the SR-71 Blackbird landed. They have several Air Force 1 crafts that you can walk through. Unfortunately, they lost the bid for a space shuttle.
They do have an example of about every aircraft ever made. Go to the website. Take the virtual tour. One could spend a month on their website.

When i was a kid living in Brooklyn I remember hearing the Constellations rumbling overhead on their way to and from Idlewild Airport. The sound of those engines was unforgettable.
BTW "Idlewild" airport is now what we call "Kennedy" airport. But in those days it was still Idlewild.
I keep my 2 feet on the ground, and my head in the twilight zone.
Nothing like the sound of an old TU-22 Backfire. The USAF didn't need state-of-the-art radar to locate that plane; you could hear one approaching.![]()
