Raven68 Posted July 19, 2016 Share Posted July 19, 2016 (edited) Had some wonderful time off at the beaches of Va Beach and the Outer banks about a week ago. On the way to the Outer banks from Va. Beach we stopped off at the Military Aviation Museum south of Va. Beach. For some reason I did not know about this place, but stumbled a nice find for myself. IIRC this place is owned by a collector of WWI & WWII aircraft. He apparently has some serious coin, because he has a sizable stable of planes. To our surprise we arrived just in time to see him take one of his toys for a Sunday afternoon spin... By the way, my recording abilities are not the greatest so don't beat me up too bad about dropping off. :D Edited July 19, 2016 by Raven68 Intel i5-9600K @ 3.7GHz Gigabyte Z370XP SLI Mobo G.SKILL Ripjaws V Series 32GB (2 x 16GB) 288-Pin DDR4 GIGABYTE GeForce RTX 2070 8GB 256-Bit GDDR6(Assume the latest driver version) Thermaltake Water 3.0 Certified Liquid Cooling System Windows 10 Professional Oculus Rift-S /TrackIR 5 in case VR dies Thrustmaster HOTAS Warthog w/ Thrustmaster T-Flight Rudder Pedals Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Raven68 Posted July 19, 2016 Author Share Posted July 19, 2016 Also bear in mind that they do a couple of airshows there. In May it's primarily WWII aircraft and in October, IIRC, is dedicated to WWI aircraft. I will try to return in May and make another beach trip out of it. :) Intel i5-9600K @ 3.7GHz Gigabyte Z370XP SLI Mobo G.SKILL Ripjaws V Series 32GB (2 x 16GB) 288-Pin DDR4 GIGABYTE GeForce RTX 2070 8GB 256-Bit GDDR6(Assume the latest driver version) Thermaltake Water 3.0 Certified Liquid Cooling System Windows 10 Professional Oculus Rift-S /TrackIR 5 in case VR dies Thrustmaster HOTAS Warthog w/ Thrustmaster T-Flight Rudder Pedals Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am sure you will enjoy yourself. :) Sound like a ECU fan! :D Sometimes it's hard to be but yep...raised in Greenville, ECU Grad. I noticed they give rides in some aircraft like the Stearman. Also, the P51 had a backseat passenger. I wonder if it is possible to get a ride in Double Trouble Too? I think I will inquire.
