inovolved with this She is one of the ladies who organized or kept in

Dido on the museum!!

The museum is awesome.

Plan at least 7 hours there.

It is interesting even if you're not much into planes. The history,
the mechanical engineering, old technology vs new technology,
original historical planes and stuff... real good stop for sure

brother Dan and I spent biggest part of a day there and planned to
return, but got side tracked by some more stuff at the event.

Phil, that will be a real short drive for you. We are talking about
going, but without next years schedule of races its hard to commit.
We will probibly not take any time off work but just drive over in
the car for a visit.
