Thought some of you might like these 360 degree panoramic shots of the New England Air Museum's birds. B-29, F-104, Seasprite, VS-44A, etc.

You might notice two of fourteen flak damage repairs to the A-26's right rear engine nacelle in the Restoration Hangar 360. Original WWII patches!

The turrets will go in, but thee is still some interior and other things to work on at the moment.
The A-26 and F-104 are now out of the restoration hangar and the P-51D N13Y, and I believe the Burnelli are or will be in there soon.
