Wow! that's a huge selection! awesome!

I used to help maintain a Fieseler Fi-156C-1 Storch (the last flying one in Europe with a wooden spar) when I first got into mechanicing.... good to see they have one of them.....

Fantastic pictures, wow, that's a place I could easily visit daily! Thanks for posting the link, that's a fantastic collection or planes and great pictures indeed!

cotejy: Is it the jet that's the problem? And is that a B-36 in the background?

I found two new North American planes I hadn't heard about before, or seen. And then there's this, any idea what plane that is on the ground to the right?

Aw man, this really brings me in the mood to visit museums, I really hope I finally get to visit some in 2011. Only problem is that my old digital camera broke so I either need to get a new one or ask to borrow my brother's cheap camera.
