Open Cockpit Day, Castle Museum
Jordan and I at Castle Air Museum's open cockpit day. I am
posting some of the better shots. I did not get all the pictures I would have
liked to, so I have goals for next years Open Cockpit
Day...
- The Kid
SR-71 Blackbird at the start of the day 
| Lockheed 18 Loadstar exterior, passenger/cargo space and
flight controls |
   |
| At the controls of a Fairchild C-119 Flying Boxcar, this type is the star
of "Flight of the Phoenix", both the old one w/ James Stewart
and Earnest Borgnine and the new one. |
 
|
| Virgin's Delight, B-17G, she's been gutted and has no radio
compartment, though her Ball Turret is mostly intact. Jordan in the tail
gunner's position. |
   |
| B-52 Stratofortress exterior, a shot of the Bombardiers
Station from the Navigator's seat and upstairs on the flight deck. We had to get an appointment to tour this
aircraft. |
   |
| Douglas B-18 Bolo, unfortunately this one is not open to the
public. |

|
| Also a video clip from inside the C-46 Commando, Jordan was
a little scared due to disorientation of the slanted deck of the parked
aircraft. |
