| Fantasy Of Flight Museum Planes Went to Fantasy of Flight museum in Kissimmee Florida today with Phantomphan. We had a blast. We saw lots of beautiful aircraft up close. One of the best parts was climbing inside a B-17G. I took lots of photos . I cannot believe how cramped a Flying Fort really is. Of note was a huge Short Sunderland(no pics) got to explore it inside stem to stern. It is huge. Note: in the pics see a Nieuport 11 used in the movie Flyboys. Great gift shop saw the Corgi B-17 Nine-o-nine up close. Had to resist getting it. It is one of Corgi's very best B-17's IMHO. Enjoy the pics! The date is wrong but who cares.....                               | |||||||||||||

| Re: Fantasy Of Flight Museum Planes I had no idea this was such a great museum. Had I known, I would have gone there when I was in Orlando last November for a few days. Next time for sure! This forum certainly contains very valuable info (and not just about diecast, as in this case), and I'm very glad to be a member. FVD | |||||||||||||

| Re: Fantasy Of Flight Museum Planes I have been there a few times and what is wild is that it is not out of the ordinary to see Kermitt Weeks walking around and talking to people. The B-25, B-26, Sunderland, and PBY are only out side on nice days, so you were lucky to see them out there. | |||||||||||||
