My Son Little John and I went to the US Air Force Museum today. I thought I’d share a few pics I took while there. Little John with an A-10 Warthog Tail section of an F4. I thought this was neat as I can see some uneven “sheen” on the paint The business end of a B-52 Bomber Nose of the B-29 “Boxcar” ME 262 B-17G Shoo Shoo Shoo Baby Neat diorama Idea? I thought this was an interesting find. Tail section from a crashed B-17 used as a farmers shed

Always wanted to go there. Model show will be held at that very same place next weekend if I am correct. But I am not going... I am too broke but actually I have to work next weekend.
Good catch on F-4 tail... very interesting!

I'll post more pics here and there as I get them processed for the forum. I'll just use this thread because I might have to pull them back off PB at a later date if it starts getting full. Model show? Maybe I went to early? Just my luck. But I only live an hour and a half drive from Dayton.

That's a great museum to visit. I went a couple of years ago. It's unbelievable the amount of stuff that they have there.
BigJohn - Did you make it over to the "Experimental Hanger"? That XB-70 there is a jaw dropper!

That XB-70 there is a jaw dropper! No, I didn't make it to that hanger, but I have seen it before. Due to budget cuts, the Experimental hanger is now closed.

That's sad news, indeed. Almost everything over there (X planes and Presidential planes) are one of a kind and can't be seen anywhere else.
