Stopped off at this little free museum this morning and was fortunate to be there when the F-5 cockpit was open for display. Will be posting two photos taken from the outside and five taken as I sat inside the cockpit. I then had to "eject" to make room for others. Photos taken with a Droid SmartPhone, five megapixel camera. Bought sixty dollars worth of books while I was there to help support the museum. Books are about the Banshee, the Fury, the Mig-15 (all Korean war vintage jet fighters) and a fourth one about the legendary F6F Hellcat. Two exterior shots on this post, then the five of the cockpit next post.
