The SBD Dauntless is one they pulled from the water a few years ago. These pics are about 2-3 years old.

I have been here several times. It is an awesome place and the best thing it was FREE to get into! I have been to some small museums that charged a steep price to get in. It takes a very long time to see everything because there is so much to see. My favorite was the huge flying boat hanging from the ceiling just because it was so different.  

Thanks for sharing.

it is amazing. We were there on a day the Blue Angles practiced and had a chance to meet several of them afterwards. I would love to go back soon.

I'm about three hours from the Air Force Museum but I would sure love to make it down there one of these days.

i'm in Louisville KY. I'm hoping to take a vacation day and head to Wright-Pat soon, probably after the first of the year, though. I try to go when the kiddies are in school! I'm old enough to not like crowds.

They get in the way of picture taking.  I was there the end of October.  One of these days I'll get the pictures organized.  The Angels came home that weekend and put on their show.  Great as usual.

 I may get so drunk, I have to crawl home. But dammit, I'll crawl like a Marine.
