Love Antique Airplanes? We Help You Find Them... You Can Help Too!
Antique airplanes, vintage airplanes, old airplanes... call them what you will. We love them all.... antique, old and not so old. With aircraft it's not quite the same as with furniture is it!? The oldest of the old aeroplanes are barely antiques by those standards... and today even many jets are vintage aircraft.... including the oh-so-sleek SR-71!
Speaking of oh-so-sleek... this is not a sleek commercial website. It's pretty much a home grown affair, but it's done with a great love of aviation and a wish to share. We hope you look around and enjoy it.
So what are we trying to give you here? One site you can come to for information about where to find antique airplanes....
- Where to find 'em...
- Where to see 'em...
- See 'em fly
- Maybe even where to fly in one.
We've been lucky to travel a lot as our website MouseTours Travels will show you. We look for antique airplanes.... any airplanes where ever we travel.
We'd like to share our adventures and discoveries with you. We'll develop a place where you can come to find out where you can go to see these lovely old birds. Not just museums, but airports where antique airplane pilots congregate and air shows that feature classic aircraft.
We'll need your help; we can't find them all, so if you have tips and suggestions, look for our "contact-us" page or tell us about your favorites under YOUR CONTRIBUTIONS... just check the navigation bar to the left. Your contribution will go up as a page authored by you.
We'll start with some of the big and obvious venues and work into our more out of the way discoveries. Most will be in the U.S. since that is our home base, but we'll include great international places to see antique airplanes that you just won't see anywhere else.
So fasten your seatbelt in preparation for take off.
Come along with us as we add pages to show you what we've found. Where to
...FIND 'EM ...SEE 'EM ...FLY 'EM!
Share stories and photos with us of great old airplanes that you've found.
Let's see what we can find!
Have a great flight, (Yea... we both flew in it!) Mark and Judy
