Thanks my friend

While Pima my son used my 300mm lens to capture this in an area where you where not allowed to go. I dont ever remember seeing something like this. US Army, any one know more about it. Rocket launcher of some sort as a guess.

 

[Micdrow]

Kind of shocked to see this on the Pima aircraft museum grounds as well. Guessing captured during the war.

Currently some of the aircraft under restoration at Yanks aircraft museum. Sorry they where really crowded in there and well I only took pictures of the WWII ones.

Bombs need dusting.

 

[Micdrow]

LOL guys, yeah she needs a lot of work but the museum is hoping to put her back into flying condition.

One of the movie stars we seen.

 

[Micdrow]

Second one needs no introduction or at least I hope not. LOL

 

[Micdrow]

Ran into Bone Crusher from the Transformers movie.

 

[Micdrow]

Next one might be of Optimis Prime when they found him in the abandoned Movie theater. Had a transformer sticker next to the door handle but some one peeled first layer off. Then again maybe not. I would have to watch the movie again. There was no info on it in the museum and I forgot to ask on my way out.
