Bonjour from The War shop! I live close to where that C-47 was born in Southern California. Great restoration! There is a B-17 restoration going on at the Planes of Fame Museum where I visit often. planesoffame.org I am so jealous, I want to live where you live. I have been to Normandy and...

Hello everyone, I am sending out the feelers to see if anyone would like to contribute some writing to a book I am putting together to help with donations for the B-17 restoration going on at the Planes of Fame Museum in Chino, CA. I have a group of photographs of Warbirds, vehicles, people...

The biggest little air show on Ford Island in Pearl Harbor is going on. Wish I was there. Pacific Aviation Museum - Pearl Harbor, Hawaii

Wheels, Good point about visiting March. I will make it a priority to give it the time it deserves. I could probably stay there all day with no problem at all.

Interesting collection from the American Airpower Heritage Museum. Save the Girls

I was so disappointed I couldn't make it to the Museum in Luxembourg on my Battle of the Bulge Tour. It's all so close, just ran out of time. Gives me a good reason to go back to Europe. Great video! Makes me feel like I was sorta there.

Cool. Thanks for the gaming advice!

Thanks for the links Wheels! I'll check it out the next time I go to Planes Of Fame.

Didn't know that March had a B-17 too. With some history no less. So, yep, worth the trip. Next time heading to Chino I will drop by. Maybe we car pool? Thanks for the link! I actually have that link to that museum in my "Museums" section on The War shop but I think they have updated it since...

Maglar, I played all the COD and a couple of the MOH for the Mac from years ago before the graphics got REALLY good. But they don't release games for Mac that often : ( Is MOH Airborne as good as it looks? Please tell me it's terrible and that I shouldn't get a PS3 because I would never leave...

wheelsup_cavu, I've driven by the March Museum, but never got to stop in. : ( They have two B-29's I think, that I saw from the highway. Have you been? Is it worth the trip from Santa Monica? I wish I was closer to Chino. I would go there every day.

Thanks Maglar! I'm pretty sure that B-25 was at the Chino Airshow this year as well. I have video of it taxiing and doing a flyby on my YouTube Channel. Are you a gamer? Did you ever play MOH Airborne? My wife won't let me get a console. I am sad.

I wanted to go back this year for the 65th Anniversary, but was already in France/Begium in March, so had to miss it. I took a Battle of the Bulge Tour while there. It was amaaaaaazing! Toured with Henri Mignon, a survivor of the German occupation of his hometown of Houffalize in the 40s. He was...

I see that Maglar has a photo of the B-17 "Fuddy Duddy". That plane used to fly over my house when I lived in Redondo Beach, CA. I could always tell it was the B-17 by the distinct sound of those engines. Still don't know why it was in my area at the time. The Wings of Freedom tour passed...

Hi guys, Thanks everyone for the kind welcome! Sorry, I was away at the Planes of Fame Air Museum in California (planesoffame.org). They are restoring a B-17 there and I drop in from time to time to see the progress. I am currently working on the 1/72 Italeri C-47 Skytrain. I was in Normandy...
