Default My WW2 Weekend in Reading PA (pick heavy)

Three day event this past weekend. I just went one day. Plenty to see and do. I have over 123 pictures but here is just a few. Saw Val dive bomber fly, corsairs, P-40, Dauntless, P-51, B-17. If you want to see more let me know and I will post them.

Some more:




























I have video also. I was about 20 feet from the P-51 when he fired it up. Loud, obnoxious and full of power. In fact, the flight line was a 20 feet rule when these birds were operating. Needless to say you got the sight, sound and smell...not to mention my Torsk baseball cap kept blowing off.

Here is the tank they used in Band of Brothers. Some of the actors from the movie were there as well signing autographs.
