Museum of Flight

I can find a lot of information about Flight and Space. I think it would be fun because today, flight is developing very quickly, air plane can take people from a place to another place faster than other transports, helicopter can help people to decide some accident quickly, people can go out space. But we know just a little information about that and we always want to know how they can do that. So I think it will be very exciting.
