I travel every few months to our corporate office in Great Barrington, Mass. I usually fly into Bradley and hang out at NEAM as long as possible before heading into the office.
Our office is about equidistant between Albany and Springfield. Is there any reason to fly into Albany as far as Warbirds go?

Just wondering!

In the Albany area, there is the Empire State Aerosciences Museum (http://www.esam.org/). It was more interesting when they were hosting regular air shows and Dave T. had some of his toys hanging out there.

NEAM put the wildcat back on display so i'm not sure if that would make you want to go to bradley

I live down near SWF, about 90 miles south, and my wife is from Albany (Troy, more specifically). I know of no aviation-related reason to go there. I'm a mentor for the local chapter of the Tuskegee Airmen, and we in past weeks have been looking for a day-trip site for our students. Just this past Monday, they went to NEAM. Albany never entered the discussions.
