4/2/2013 - DAYTON, Ohio -- The National Museum of the U.S. Air Force will close its Presidential and Research and Development Galleries until further notice beginning May 1, 2013, as part of budget reduction requirements due to sequestration.

Best part of the museum will be closed till further notice... :wtf:
This part has the Air Force One's and XB-70.

I would speculate that they want to make it visible. Seems to be a common technique when there are cutbacks -- make sure that everybody feels the pinch so that they will fight to get it back.

The "Washington Monument ploy" strikes again.
Einstein got it backward: one cannot prevent a war without preparing for it.

Uncertainty: Learn it, love it, live it.
