Not sure how many, but they have 2 large hangars, one for display and one maintenance. The restoration shop has 8 planes in it and then there some 6 other buildings that hold projects. At the end of the 6 buildings, are 8 containers holding a Lancaster. Then there is a buidling across the street that has some stuff.

At the Polk facility, they are buidling what looks like 3 more hangars. This will hopefully allow for the aircraft at the Lakeland museum, the Miami museum and the B-17 at Mr Reilly's place come together.

Not sure if they are going to bring the California holdings out or not.

Should still be a great place to visit.
