Caption

"Time flies when you are having fun" is an old saying. This panorama was taken at the Smithsonian Air and Space Museum Stephen F. Udvar-Hazy Center located on the grounds of Dulles International Airport. What better place to mix flying, time and fun?

A variety of time pieces associated with flight are displayed along with other artifacts in the large exhibit case. The aircraft on display include the Concorde supersonic transport which reduced the flight time from New York to London to less than three hours. Manned flight increased the perceived speed of modern events and truly made time fly.
