    There is/was a B-25 and F-105 in the collection, but they were not spotted by a Locator contributor during a visit in August 2008. Can you confirm these two airframes are still with the collection?


    If you are traveling in the United States, Aerial Visuals suggests you carry with you a copy of
    'U.S. Military Out of Service' by Andy Marden,
    a book which documents military aircraft survivors in the U.S.A..
