    Thanks guys.

    You wouldn't know it from looking at the photos, but the place was packed!

    For some of the photos I had to wait about 20 minutes, waiting for a food here, an elbow there to get out of my frame! lol

    I'm going back tomorrow morning EARLY, so I'll post more then.

    Diego

    You really need to get your butt down there! lol

    My father and I made the pilgrimage from Atlanta Ga.

    Also, don't let the quality of the photos fool you. For some reason, they came out less vibrant than they really are.

    Especially the Tigercat, a favourite. Do I see a Dauntless in there ? A great museum! Wish we had such kinds of museums here...

    I didn't know that the Blue Angels used to fly A-4's...knew about the Panther, Cougar, F-11F, Phantom,

    Now a perhaps rather silly question...but what is a MiG-15 doing in a naval aviation museum ?

    Very nice work, Diego!
    Please let me know about spelling and grammatical errors in my English, thank you!

    So drink to the Black Cat PBY,
    Damnedest old plane in all God's sky,
    BB-gun for'd and a slingshot aft,
    Hundred twenty knots when in a forced draft.
