Frank Mormillo/ Planes of Fame Air Museum
The museum expects 16 P-51 Mustangs at the May event. Mustang number Ed Maloney purchased tail number 45-11582 (foreground) in November 1957, and the museum has maintained it in flying condition ever since.

Aside from closing my eyes and just dreaming about flying any one of these beauties, the only thought that comes to mind is : Wish I could be there. Anybody who is going,
enjoy it for all of us who can't make it. Someday I AM

Hello,
Your show looks amazing and a friend and I would like to drive over from Phoenix next year to see it. Unfortunately we did not discover it until today or we would have come this time around. Would it be possible for you to email me when you know the dates of the 2011 show. EDITORS' REPLY: You need to contact the organizers of the show for that information.

The Planes of Fame airshow is usually the third weekend of May. This years show was outstanding as usual. The museum is worth visiting any time of the year if you are a fan of WWII era planes. They also have other interesting displays of pre-WWII and post-WWII aircraft, and holds special events the first Saturday of each month.
