Wow! Those are some great pics! They really take you back in time. You don't see too many pics of the B-57 and C-119 too often!Really great to see them!

Silverbird:
Thank you so much for you nice comment. In 1957 Edwards AFB announced it's "Public Open House" which conceivably was its first ever. In those days Edwards was constantly in the news as so much was going on there as well as being a most secretive place. Being in high school (and being an aviation nut) me and my HS friends could not pass up the opportunity!! The Open House was nothing more than static aircraft displays and a "Taxi-by"of the latest aircraft...which represent my photo set.
