A low clouds shelf didn't make for the ideal weather situation, but that allowed the spectators to get up close and personal to the approximately forty WWII-vintage aircraft parked in hangars and on the apron.  Unfortunately there are not a whole lot of these planes restored to flyable condition, and it's not unusual to see the same make and model at several different shows.  So, with that in mind, trailing are a few of the "more unique" ones (including some very correct replicas!) attending yesterday's airshow at Military Aviation Museum:
