After our visit to the Golden Hill Storage area we spent the rest of the day at Fantasy of Flight. Here is some of what we saw during our step back in time...

I did not realise Kermit had a B-24D nose. Neat way to display it:

B-25 noses.

Most of the regular flyers are in a hangar across the ramp. Kermit's B-24J is in there too...

What's the story on this GeeBee, didn't know he had it...?

That's the Gee Bee that Delmar Benjamin built and flew for years on the airshow circuit.
