USAF Museum
Just got back from our trip to the museum at WPAFB near Dayton, OH.
Of course the weather was crappy, traveled with a good crowd. Have been there twice before, wanted to see the new to me 4th hanger. The guys that flew some of the experimentals............huge big brass ones........

And if traveling I-75 in south GA. Don't miss this one. It's free and has the best WW2 exhibits I've seen.

Nicknamed the Goblin. It was a proof of concept experiment for a parasite fighter plane to be carried in one of the bomb bays of a B-36. It had no landing gear, the pilot had to hook onto a trapeze that extended from the bottom of the bomber. It didn't work worth a crap.

Love that place. I'm less than an hour away so I try to make it up there every so often, especially now with the little guy. "Airplane!!!" was 1 of his first words.
