: Barksdale AFB is here in my home town. If I had one wish
: it would be for the Air Force to at least attempt to move
: some of their collection indoors. They have a B-17, B-24,
: P-51, and many others that really should be brought in out
: of the muggy Louisiana heat. Every time I visit the base
: it seems they have numerous hangars that are always empty
: (ironically two of them are adjacent to the museum's disp
: lay grounds). Surely the museum could "adopt" some hangar
: space and diversify their display.

: It will be great to see an SR-71 join the collection thoug
: h :) It would look great right next to the Avro Vucan!
