Been to the Selfridge airshow a couple of times in the past but never to the museum. Looks like some of the aircraft have been given a spruce up and the F86 looks like it has been moved from the grass?

Great pics..they've got a nice collection there.

I visited the museum a couple of years ago..looks like they've made some progress on a couple of projects since then. I don't think they had an F-14 when I was there, either.

Nice pics. I'm sure most of the airframes are suffering from being out in the harsh climate especially the Corsair! Does the museum have any plans to put anything of these under cover?

I volunteer to take the Corsair to MAPS! We'll put it inside and take care of it REAL GOOD! :D

Cool pics! I especially like the Tracker and the B-57.
