The Military Aviation Museum is located in Pungo, Va. less than five miles from my home. However, all their rebuilding and refurbishing is done in Suffolk, Va. about 50 miles away, at The Fighter Factory. I believe these pic's were taken in Suffolk. Only the flyable aircraft are located in Pungo. . I'll have to try to get out there..... with a camera, of course.

I love new engine break in runs on cars / race cars. On a WWII fighter, just too bad !!!!!! Awesome!

What camo and markings are they doing? looks like a JG 1 cowl with a JG 54 cat. And no swastika but I can guess at the reason.

I love new engine break-in runs on cars...

Amen to that
the shake-down after you've tidied away the last spanner - grin-inducing
