This is a non profit museum that houses many many planes from WWI, WWII, and early jets. Many fly and they take them out once in a while too. I got to see a raffle winner get a ride in a P40 which was nice. From a LAShooters outing. We picked an indoor venue since we are in a middle of a rain storm.

1. Mustang, ready to fly, I think.

    Really well done on these - I enjoyed the composition on them as well. Love the light in number 5 - very nicely done. We have a local air museum nearby - you have inspired me to head out there soon and try my hand........:D

    Hey thanks for looking all.
    I'm not a big fan of shooting planes or cars, especially if they are static. But shooting something beats not shooting anything b/c of the rains.
