This two-day flying event of authentic and replica World War I aircraft is offered every other year by the museum and the Great War Aeroplanes Association. The next one is in 2022. The event includes WWI living history re-enactors in a war encampment area, radio-controlled model aircraft, period vehicles, music and a collector's show of WWI era items. The event will include guest speakers on WWI topics as well as many family hands-on and educational activities. Great show, vendors with some diecast but mostly books and model kits. I snagged a few WWI books while I was there. Of course you tour the museum while you are there. It also has an incredible book store . Several of the prints on my man cave walls are from a HS ROTC visit many many many years ago.

Doug lives not that far away in Columbus, he was a member of our old model building forum.
Me on the right . A few members from that old forum live in England and visited with Doug some
years back. Sites like these are great for making connections.
