8th Air Museum in Louisiana

Anyone know if this museum is still open? Their website disappeared a few months ago and I thought maybe they closed up shop.

That's the Barksdale AFB one? One of my cousins flies in and out of there, I'll drop him an email and find out.

I know a while back they said they were having some issues with their website when I was there

Phew.., hope it is just their website!

All the planes are still there and available for parusing. I'm not sure about the museum building though. I haven't heard anything about a closing from anyone on base.

I was just there a month or so ago. I know the curator and several staff members and I'm sure I would have heard if they were closing. I bet it's just thier website is down.

I have not heard back from my cousin there, they also had not heard of it closing, but that it was not on a road they normally drive, but they would get back to me..we shall see.
