Tonight is supposed to be colder. Is this really Minnesota and not Florida?
We didn't let the cold weather bother us and we headed to the Air Force Armament Museum at Elgin AFB.
The Armament Museum isn't a major museum but it was worth a hour or two exploring the exhibits. Inside there were exhibits of bombs, cruise missiles and lots of info on fighters and their guns. Outside there was quite a number of aircraft including a B-47, a B-52 and a C-130.
Inside we found this P-51. It was the best fighter in the world in it's day being used in WWII and after till jets went operational. This is one Kool machine!
I'm including this one for James. How about a ride in that jet fighter?
There was also a section inside on special operations that the Air Force conducted. Interesting that I knew of some of them while I was still working. Am I getting old or what?
Off to New Orleans tomorrow for a couple of days. Hope we find some warmer weather.
