Aircraft Model Displays

Description

Apart from genuine aircraft on display; the museum has multiple model planes on displays. During a visit in 2010 (Or was it in 2011, anyway.), I met a WWII Air Force Veteran who was conducting the tour that day; and he was shocked at how much I knew about the aircraft in the hangar (Models and actual planes). He asked me to tell him the names of the model planes in the display cases WITHOUT looking at the names; and I named 99.9% of them for him. He was amazed. There was a collage of broken model planes mounted on the wall near a massive searchlight; and he asked me to identify the mangled aircraft on the board on the wall. Once again, I shocked him with how much I knew. Even the other tourists were stunned.
