Go to the Air Force museum in Dayton. It is a great collection and some real rare pieces. I think they have a Martin B-10 bomber. Enjoy your trip.

Some great shots of a great plane James. The WWII Museum has an air expo every year at the New Orleans Lake Front Airport. This plane has been at the expo several times. With your permission I will post one of several shots I took of her.

Neat pics. I flew on Aluminum Overcast at Oshkosh about a month ago. Didn't get as many ground pics because they shuffled us on and off fairly quickly so they could get as many flights in as possible - about 24 minutes in the air and there were 10 people that had to switch positions to look around. I ended up taking about 50 interior pics - several didn't turn out as well as I would have hoped (exposure, focus) but I still got some good ones. Personally for me, the $409 was a budget-buster but it was neat to experience part of history..only 12 airworthy examples remain. Now if I had 3 grand to spare, an hour or so in a mustang would be the cat's meow!

Same plane James. Took photos of the Bluebonnet Belle at one of these expos and saw where she crashed and burned in Texas a month or two ago. A piece of history lost forever.
