Not sure about this one, they weren't open yet, so all pics are from outside the fence. B-12?

and just so you know, most of "Kalifornia" looks like this and not like Baywatch. (Picture Kansas placed between San Fransisco and LA)

ty Funked.

Looks like a nice museum, wish I could have hung around longer. Don't see many B-24's these days. Do you know what the old 2 engine bomber is?

ah, thks Funked.  We had one down here at McChord, during an airshow, about 80% restored.  Not sure if it was their own or a traveler.  It was not in flyable condition.

That B-18 looks like it popped out of Walt Disney cartoon.
