Anyone headed Seattle way this summer should check out Paul Allen's meticulously restored warbirds: www.flyingheritage.com
They fly these old beasts several times a year, up next is the P51 and Spit. The shows are free and admission to the collection is 12 dollars. These people are really great, and the collection is staffed by fine volunteers who are knowledgable and fun to chat with. It's such a fantastic priviledge to get to see these aircraft fly.
Given the connection between motorcycles and vintage piston fighters I figured some XSers might be interested. Come to the next Hellcat flight and you'll likely meet my grandfather who flew them, along with a number of other fine aircraft from '43-'45.
