Very good turn out this morning with cars parked both sides of the access road.

We got to see take offs and landings of the B-17, P-40 and P-51. Also warm up of the Mitchell Bomber in prep for a flight.

Taking a close look at each plane it is obvious that keeping these planes flight ready is an immense undertaking. They must have scavenged bone yards worldwide for spare parts. And they must have the skill to fabricate a wide range of parts.
