+Dave Posted October 1, 2011 Posted October 1, 2011 I just got back from the bi-annual WWI fly-in at the US Air Force Museum, and boy was it fun! The weather was forecast to be cloudy with a chance of rain, but Mother nature was kind and held off the rain. We even had breaks of blue sky at times and very little wind, so good flying weather. Most of the flyable aircraft are 7/8 scale reproductions, but there was a full-scale N28 that flew, along with static displays of a full-scale Sopwith Baby and a rare single-wing Morane Saulnier AI. There were also a Fokker E II, several varieties of Nieuports, and so forth. I also made some time to go in the museum itself and got lots of pictures--not sure how good they are, but I got 'em. I'll try to post some of them tomorrow. Cheers. Should of told me you were coming. I live 5 miles from the museum. Quote
Herr Prop-Wasche Posted October 2, 2011 Author Posted October 2, 2011 Ah, that's okay Dave. I live about 10 minutes from the museum! I'll let you know what I'm wearing next time, however! Quote

Drop me a PM and we can do lunch. I have a CombatAce get together every few years and was planning another one. I think we could turn this into something big in 2014. Quote
DukeIronHand Posted October 2, 2011 Posted October 2, 2011 Yeah, an OFF convention sounds nice. I will look forward to meeting you, Jwrich and your friend Dallas, as well as you, Duke. Maybe we should print out a t-shirt? And, if we can agree on a decent hotel with a bar for the out of towners, we might even get Bullethead to attend! I like it! Quote
