Who else loves old warbirds? Post here.

From age 12 to 20 I lived walking distance (OK, it was a looong walk, but we did it several times each summer) from the USAF museum. 5 blocks to the fence, but another 2 miles or so to the gate.

We also had the Dayton Air Fair every year, which was everything the US took to the Paris Airshow plus all sorts of vintage stuff.

The mayor of Moraine, even did aerobatics in a B-17!

I likes me a B-17. They got all sorts of charisma.

I rode my bike on Huffman Prairie (Wright brothers test area) and I've had my finger on the button that dropped the A bomb on Nagasaki (when the "Bockscar" was a walk-through exhibit).
