National Naval Aviation Museum

A-4 Skyhawk

Finally got to the National Naval Aviation Museum this week.  Hadn't been there since 1976.  Sensory overload for me.  Just way too many aircraft all bunched together.  Made it hard to get pictures of just individual aircraft.  I've posted a few pictures here just to give you a feel.  If you're not into aircraft, plan on a few hours if you visit.  Otherwise, plan on spending days here.

We're fine and still doing what we do best at Gulf Shores - eat.  Been a wet week so far, but it's relatively warm and not too stormy.  Not good bicycling weather, so short walks between rain showers are the norm for this week.

Later, David.

NC-4.  First to make it across the Atlantic Ocean.

Corsair.  Painted as if it's part of the Black Sheep Squadron

German ME 262.  An example of the jet fighter seen in "Red Tails".

F-14 Tomcat

Couldn't resist!
