This is near the Wright Airforce Base, the largest in the country. If offers plenty of free parking and ample space to photograph exotic aircraft without using an ultra wide angle lens. It also contains the last remaining XB-70 mach 3 bomber, a plane that I helped design in my youth (late 1950s). It looks like nothing so much as a 50 meter long folded paper dart. The tarmac has a number of unusual aircraft parked outside the entrance. Larry Z - -- To unsubscribe, see http://mejac.palo-alto.ca.us/leica-users/unsub.html
