Naval Air Station Wildwood Aviation History Museum

The air station was once an important training base for Navy pilots, 42 of whom died here in crashes. These days, what was once Hangar One during WWII houses Huey and HH-52 Seaguard helicopters, F-16 and F-14 fighter jets, and a Russian MiG, among other war machines, some of which you can sit inside and realize how claustrophobic they were.
