We were at the Selfridge Air Museum this weekend and the hosts there said to go to the Yankee Air Museum next.

This is a dirty pity!

The three working planes -- World War II vintage B25, B17 and C47 -- were rescued shortly after Saturday evening's devastating fire began, when four museum volunteers pushed them to safety.

These planes must be a lot lighter then they look. I couldn't even imagine 4 guys being able to budge one, let alone push them out of hanger. Any comments from any one that has work around these planes would be appreciated.

I'm sure the folks at the Kalamazoo Air Zoo (http://www.airzoo.org)would step up to provide a home for the remaining aircraft.

Of course, the standard response from the conspiracy theorists would be that the Airzoo staff should be prime suspects in the suspicious blaze.

Those older planes would look nice right next to the SR-71 that they have in Kalamazoo.
