Re: Military Aviation Museum, Virginia Beach, VA

I see they have some vehicles there as well.

Yes, they have some small vehicles and an AA gun. I hear they occasionally fire the gun!

Re: Military Aviation Museum, Virginia Beach, VA

Oh wow! I am going there next weekend.
 

I can take umbrage, I can take the cake, I can take the A-Train, I can take two and call me in the morning, but I cannot take this sitting down. Now, if you'll excuse me, I'm going to take five.

Re: Military Aviation Museum, Virginia Beach, VA

Looks like a grat collection of some really unique aircraft. Will definitely put it on the gotta see list. But to include that picture of the Skyraider just dredged up a feeling of disappointment, Gemini where the hell is it?
