Fantasy of Flight- part 3

This motion simulator looked interesting... but it was inop.  :'(

Dang... forgot to take notes on this one... Ford, I think... but beautiful in any case.

Image


A couple of nice replicas: A Gee Bee Z, and an R-2 (yes, that's the same one flown so well by Delmar Benjamin)

Not sure what connection, if any, this 1931 Curtiss Jr. has to the fabled Tallmantz company...
but it sure is sweet. I've heard a lot of good things about this old design- I'd love to fly one someday.

Image



Let's have another look at that Stinson Tri-Motor:

Image


Quite a few cockpit sections here, almost all open for sitting in:  this Consolidated Vultee BT-13, for example...

Image
Image


This little guy was having fun clambering around inside a cute tainer- thing made from the fuselage of a C172.

Image


Another cool 'pit... this one looks like a replica, though: F-8 Crusader.

Image
Image


Not a replica: very complete nose section of a Grumman Tracker.

Image
Image




My favorite: this Beech 18 flight deck. Very nice...
Image
Image


The UK is fairly well-represented here: check out this beautiful 1938 Avro Cadet!

Image

Then there's the thing behind it... ;)


Next: part 4... last from the north hangar

That looks like a really fun place.  :)

I am just a train fan who happens to like flying and attempting to get the better of the mods especially those with 20/20 vision ;D ;D
