http://www.thedailyjournal.com/article/20101217/NEWS01/12170316/1002/Blue-Angels-make-return-flight-to-Millville-AirportJust a little plug for a great local air museum.
I spent alot of time there when it first started to be what it is today. I remember when the main museum had holes in the roof, the walls had butt ugly paneling on them, and the floors had more dirty spots then clean spots. I worked alot of the first 10 or so airshows. I spent a long weekend with two retired Navy A-4 pilots, at oceana to take apart and bring the A-4 to Millville. My dad, uncle, friends, and I spent many weekends taking the Short apart(i think thats what it is called). We towed that bird down the road on her gear.
The best memory i have of the museum is working side by side with the vets that actual served at Millville during WW2. Some were mechanics and some were pilots. Listening to their storys about what went on back then was just a great learning experiance.
Anyone who can make it to the show, please go, as with any museum, funds are what is needed to keep the joint open and this is their main money maker.
