Vogue-U Potion - Infotainment Visit "Republic of S'pore Air Force Meseum"

May Peace Be With You.......


Earlier last year, I was on the way to Pasir Ris beach with my sister's family, and we detoured a shortcut via Airport Rd when suddenly on the opposite side of the road we saw a building with signboard Air Force Museum. Out of curiosity, we decided to make a u-turn and voila... ended up to a short visit to Republic of Singapore Air Force Meseum. To our surprise the entrance is FOC and photo taking was allowed as well.... very good!!!!


The meseum was filled with very detailed informations and the best part is they displayed the actual aeroplanes and helicopters but of course they were disarmed!!!! My honey bunny nephew, Sufi, was amazed and scrutinized all the lifesize exhibits but when asked to post for a photo, sharply answered... don't want. And when I asked him to press the button for display or information, also reluctant.... hehe funny kid.
