Awesome pics, I'd love to go see that. I'll be heading the Long Island in a month, but just for a Fri-Sun, probably could talk my dad into going to see it since he's been in the aerospace industry his entire life.

Nice pics! It is really cool to see the differences in engineering and design between all of the different military aircraft used throughout the years.

I hope the space shuttle gets close to us as I know my daughter (and I) would LOVE to see that.

Thanks for sharing the great pics. For those interested in older military hardware in other areas of NY Buffalo and Erie County Naval & Military Park is in Buffalo. The ships are WWII class that were still in service during the Vietnam War when I served on the USS Little Rock, the largest on display. There is a small museum showing the history of military uniforms etc. and an outside area with tanks, personnel carriers and planes from WWII and the Vietnam Era.
