  • During our visit to San Diego, we made a stop to tour one of San Diego's most popular attractions, The USS Midway Museum Tour. The USS Midway is a great museum, highly recommended to visit, with many planes, jets, helicopters and giant flight deck. I hope you enjoy this tour.

    Thank you for sharing, I had shared this to my husband, neither of us has been on the USS Midway since it has become a musuem. I used to date a couple of sailors that were station on the USS Midway, also we had many sailors that used to come into my parents bait shop to buy bait and gear.

      @@fantabuloustravels It is amazing! Blows my mind that he was in that part of the ship every day for 5 years, less training. Unless the training was on the ship too? I think he had a stint in Huntsville Alabama, or something like that. If it was there. He hated it so bad he almost went AWOL!

    I was never ship's company but rode her six or eight times (with mixed emotions). Among the carriers I rode I hold her second (to Independence - full tour). EMO on Midway told me he was gonna hijack me for LPO and he had a desk reserved for me. I told him that if he had a desk reserved he better find sombody else cuz I don't do desks. Sailors don't come to me; I'll be there, helping (only if needed) in their shop.

    I spent two years on the USS Midway where's the A7 Corsair 2 and we did not fly f14 tomcats that I know of but we caught one because he ran out of fuel one of the crews was lost from the USS Enterprise and we had to catch this guy and we couldn't launch him off we had to Crane him off at the end of the cruise request permission to go ashore..
    sir ..., FYI they never flew f-18s off of USS Midway why it is on there I have no idea

      To really enjoy it you'd need at least an hour. You can also do it in less time or spend even more time there.
