As many as you'd like. Hope you can make it. They are breaking ground on another hangar soon so a lot of what is currently outdoors will be moved indoors. Can't wait for that day to get here. "Q"

Hope you can make it too Kelly. The moer the merrier. We currently have Jeff Garrity aka Rare Plane Detective as a vendor. Hoping to gather a few more for the show. Look me up if and when you guys make it down. "Q"

General Admission tix will be sold at the door by the museum staff. You will still be able to check out the contest as it is in the same hangar the planes are in. Some of the tables are set up under the wings of the B-29 they have and others are scattered around throughout the hangar itself. Stephen, hope you can make it down for the contest. The museum has had some volunteers come in from a university since I was last there, and they have done an incredible amount of work for the musuem. It gets better each time I'm there. They are completely overhauling all the models they have on hand to replace broken and battered ones that have been there for quite some time. Spring cleaning if you will. Again, hope to see some of you folks here in a couple of months. Look me up when you come in.

Well, PPMX'08 is officially over and in the books. Wanted to pass on my thanks to those that attended and helped make the contest a success. We had some decent, albeit very warm, weather for our show, but we had a great turnout, and things went as planned. Thanks again to all who made the journey and spent the day with us. Much appreciated!!!

hello all,
we had a great time at the show.with it being our first one,i would like to thank everyone who made us feel right at home.with it being at the Air Museum,we got a lot of photo's of all the planes,plus alot of photo's of the builds.
to all who put up your models for the judging,all i can say is i was inspired by your talents.
and i did win a prize at the raffle,that made my day.
cheers,
Bruce & Miss Mary
