His work at the Smithsonian National Air and Space Museum show moves to Reagan National Airport in May 2013.

“His trained eye and steady hand produce images of pristine clarity. Using photographic post-processing techniques, he distills the subject from the background to focus attention on design, color, and symmetry.  Milstein’s supersized prints seem to pull you into the air, as though you’re going along for the ride.
This collection of 33 photographic archival-pigment prints presents the power and elegance of aircraft in flight and transforms aviation technology into fine art.This exhibition was made possible by a grant from the Smithsonian Women’s Committee.”
