In old Virgina for some work and we had a weekend off.

What to do?

To The Fighter Factory!

I hope you enjoy the pics. The biggest impression on me was the Mossie,...stunning, simply stunning. They would'nt let me climb in, but I could poke my camera in the cockpit. Next would be the FW-190D,.. Signed by Gunther Rall. I took some upskirts through the wheel well, of the supercharger for you perverts. What's really amazing is most of the aircraft are airworthy, and you can get right in there up close and personal.

I took just shy of 300 pictures. I will add more to the album as time and hotel internet allows. I will also add some Battleship pictures soon. BB-64, USS Wisconson.

The Business trip continues. We have finished in Jacksonville Florida. Today we launched from St. Louis Mo. to Bangor Maine. This is the first leg of our trip. Tomorrow, off we go to Karup Denmark. If you want to track our progress, use Flightaware: http://flightaware.com/ and track Omega10. We will be performing publicly at the Royal Danish Airshow at Karup on June 22nd.

I didn't realize you guys were out of VCV. A little more than a year ago we were bringing three aircraft back from Fallon and we watched one of your planes landing as we flew by. We knew what your day-to-day mission was, but I figured the plane was flying in there for a refit. Didn't realize it was such a short hop for you guys to get to the Warning area.

Welp, I'm just self loading cargo for Omega, but they are pretty cool guys. They're dragging us across the pond.I just use them since they're my ride.
