http://www.commemorativeairforce.org/ - everything you might want to know about the CAF. They put on an air show every year in Midland, Texas, USA, that has to be seen to be believed. Any WW II or old airplane junkie just might be able to get their fill by attending one of these.
And I agree, the change from Confederate to Commemorative Air Force was done for purely political, stupid reasons, but ... they have to make money to keep these grand old warbirds flying, and the only way to do that is to attract people to their air shows around the country and to the (excellent!) museum in Midland - which is not a destination resort unless you're a warbird nut. You have to want to go there.
