The star of the collection is James Axtell's FG-1D Corsair N194G BuNo. 92050. It has some rather interesting racing modifications including radically clipped wings and wooden ailerons. I wonder if it ever flew with these modifications?

Finally we have a Beechcraft AT-11 s/n 42-37496. While it was built as an AT-11, it is on display as a C-45.

"Every Museum needs a Piper J-3 Cub?" Hardly. Where's their BD-5? :^)

Didn't you get the memo? It is 2008...the Cub is the new BD-5...
