Thanks for the great Photos posted lately.
My question is :
Have you been to the Warbird Museum in Kissimmee and how does it
compare to Fantasy of Flight?
I was thinking of driving over from Tampa on Sunday.
Thanks,
Oldman

Not to steal Glen's thunder, but I've been to both. On the average day,
Fantasy of Flight is head and shoulders above, but the weekend after
Christmas, the Kissimmee Warbird Museum puts on the best show I've been to.
You walk in and are right on the flight line.......really cool. When it's
time for the demos, you got planes starting up fairly close to
you.........good stuff. They also had a B17 that for a fee you could climb
into.


just my 2 cents worth

Looks like someone beat me to it..
which is a good thing as I haven't been to the kissimmee display.
I did go there once just after the really bad summer of hurricanes passed
through. I seem to remember
that the Kissimmee collection sustained a lot of damage. I assume it's back
up and running again??
Please let us know what you find should you decide to go...

best,

Glen in Orlando

Thanks Glen.
I drove over Sunday, but they are closed on Sundays until November.
Thanks for answering.
Bruce too.
Regards, Oldman
