Reporter: The museum’s deputy directory Don Lopez led Jackson and his family on the private tour - something he did when Jackson first visited Air and Space 24 years ago.

Don Lopez: He was quite shy the first time I met him… This time he was very outgoing, and spoke to everybody.

Sharyl Pahee: They’re just wonderful. They were sweet…

Reporter: Don Lopez, a 35 year veteran of the museum, was Jackson’s personal tour guide yesterday. The same tour guide when Jackson was here 25 years ago.

Don Lopez: Back then he was just like a shy kid, he didn’t say much. He hid in the corner almost. But this time he was fine, he was very upbeat.
