Way back when the Valk had 55000 miles on her I paid a
visit to the airport where the B17- 24 and the P51 had landed

Here (I hope) is the link I found in my wife's facebook page of all places

Thanks honey

Enjoy them

These fellows had brass balls and courage out the wazoo to fly in such cramped spaced
in such primitive conditions against long odds of survival

Giants among men all of them

edit

crap

The Collins Foundation is a good organization. Those are nice pictures. The B17 Nine-0-Nines and B24 Witchcraft are great airplanes and well maintained.  [I've flown in both].
The P51 Mustang is an early C model and the only dual control model in existence I'm aware of.
Their museum is well worth the effort.  Its hard to chose a favorite, there all favorites. But I really like Fiesler Storch's and they have a beauty.
