Gary, Indiana wing of the caf

[mustangdriver]

I have to go to Gary,IN in the morning and was wondering where the C-47 and JU-52 are on the field and if visitors are able to see them.

Good thing you asked before you went there.
The wing is called the Great Lakes Wing of the CAF.
It has relocated to Lansing, IL airport (IGQ).
I believe they 'returned' their JU-52 to HQ/Midland.
They have retained their C-47, which is usually parked on the open ramp; recently, they had an engine failure and might be in the process of the engine change, as we speak.
(Good Irish pub ON the airport )

Thanks vlado. I have to go the Gary control tower but was hoping to get a warbird sighting in too. Someone recently called the tower to ask us about housing a DC-3 at Elkhart. I'd love it. Vlado it was cool getting the chance to say hi at oshkosh.

I believe (but am not sure) that Jerry Yeagan now owns the -52

[planenutti]

Yes, Jerry did buy the JU-52 but I do not believe it has made it to VA yet.
