| Post subject: | Wish to fly into Dayton Airforce Museum ?? |
I am hoping to fly into Dayton to visit the Airforce museum this spring, May timeframe. Any pointers from the forum members on where (close by airfield) to land/park a light a/c. I am assuming you cannot fly in directly to the Museum airfield ? If otherwise please let me know. Also, any pointers where to stay. Any need to rent a car ? 
Thanks, Keith |

Several of us took a Bonanza down several years ago and we flew into a local airport about a 20minute drive from the museum. We rented a car for about $40. Can't rememebr the name of the airport. We did clear customs at detroit city airport before heading down. HTH, Eric |

Well There are plenty of options. The First is Moraine airpark (I73) It is a small strip about 3500'(20 Minute Drive). The next would be Dayton Intl (KDAY). They have a few FBO's and REntal cars as well as Taxi's.(30 Min. Depending on Traffic). The next is Springfield(KSGH) This has an air national guard unit on the airport they fly F-16's(25 min). Then a little further away is Dayton Wright Brothers(KMGY) They have a small musuem with replicas of the wright flyer and some of the Wright Gliders. Also based on the Field is a T-28. |

I've flown there a couple of times last year in our C-47; we used Springfield and rented a car at the FBO for the 20 minute drive to the museum. |

If you fly into Springfield, remember to look at the Ohio ANG collection...several planes includinga straight wing F-84. Also, Moraine has a lot of neat general aviation classics. And the Dayton Wright Brothers had a very nice Bell 47G-2 operating there several years ago. |
