Backstory
My family decided to go down to Palm Springs for thanksgiving, and no Palm Springs trip is complete without a visit to the Palm Springs Air Museum! So, without further ado, here are my best photos from this trip!

A very early full motion flight sim. It was used to train pilots to fly using only their instruments

And finally, the Vought F-4 Corsair

That’s it, hope you enjoyed my mediocre photography skills

I took all of these with my iPhone XR so the quality is somewhat less than professional…

I was there before COVID! It was absolutely wonderful and I do not regret going there. (There was also a flight sim, which was very nice)
