Not only is the collection impressive, but the building itself is worth the price of admission. Great shots. I've got a bunch from Tillamook that I took a few years ago that I'll see if I can add.

And I was really, really sad to see the Corsair. Still one of my all-time favourites, I used to work on it when it was based in the UK with Lindsay Walton from 1980 until the mid-90s. It wore its original French Navy markings, sad to see that it has now has a generic USN scheme applied, even though they never operated F4U-7s.
And all those years work by Bruce Pruitt to get the P-38 airworthy..............![]()
Still, thanks for posting Stephanie. Maybe one day these aircraft will land up in the hands of someone who will fly them again...........
