What were the boxes on the goon's wing?

Great pics, thanks for sharing.

Another place to visit is the American Airpower Museum in Long Island. They have fully restored operational aircraft which fly on a regular basis. They have a P-40, P-47, P-51, TBM and Corsair which are always in the air. They also have aircraft come in from other locations. Last year they had a Spit IX come in for the weekend as well as a Lancaster Bomber. They also have some other cool stuff like a Sherman Tank, an M-8 and an M-3 which are fully operational. The best days to go are Memorial Day and Labor Day weekends. Check them out at: americanairpowermuseum.com.
