This site is about the photo-documentation of warbirds at airshows and other aviation events.  This will include not only the fighters and bombers that are so often photographed, but also the often overlooked trainers, transports and liaisons.

B-36 being put back together at the PIMA Air Museum in Tucson, AZ.  It is my understanding the Air Force Museum undertook the restoration of this Peacemaker and then shipped it to Tucson for display.  Photo taken May 12, 2009.

Another purpose of this site is to record the Gate Guard Aircraft that are on outside display at parks, veterans' organizations, military bases, and other locations.  There has not been to our knowledge an organized attempt to photograph all of the former military, and in some cases, non military aircraft, that now sit outside on display.  This will be work in progress as we build the site, take the photos, and gather the information required.  Please stop back on a regular basis as we continue to grow.
