From what I hear, the last shuttle from the museum to the airport leaves sometime before the museum closes (it has extended opening times through the summer, but the bus company seems ignorant of that). Make sure you check the return schedule online or at the museum.
Best regards,

I'm probably going to be going to Udvar-Hazy around midday on Sunday (after the comcom meeting on Sunday morning, before I fly out fairly early on Monday), returning to Washington when it closes at ~6.30pm. If anyone else is interested in going at these times, let me know.
It looks like the easiest way to get there via public transport is the Metrobus to Dulles (http://www.wmata.com/bus/ - 5A, from L'enfant Plaza to Dulles), and then there's a Loudon bus from Dulles to the Air and Space museum (route 83, http://www.vatransit.org/) - and back the same way.
Thanks,
Mike
