Mike,
Would you be able to add a location (or airfield) to the list?
I'm always looking for a side trip while traveling on business.
(Viewing warbirds constitutes a great side trip.) ;-)

Thanks,

No, I was not in the navy and yes, Valparaiso does have a municipal airport and that is where the Indiana Aviation Museum (James Read) is based. At Porter County alone there are 10 warbirds! 8)
