With all these threads about HARP recently, I thought I'd throw some shots from my recent, and first trip there a couple days ago.

Very nice Mark. Are they letting people near (and inside) the C-97G ? When I was there last I couldn't get anywhere near it.

The C-97 is privately owned, so you can't enter it, unfortunately.

But you got shots from "the other side" and when I was there, I couldn;t even get near it ;-)

Unless you get to talking with the guys there and they invite you aboard...

They are in the middle of restoring her to flight status, so with so much going on around her, it can be difficult to invite guests to come aboard.
