For those living on or near Air Force Bases. Coolest planes?

One of the side benefits about going to MATSLV is the free airshow courtesy of Nellis.

My boss has several P51 Mustangs and enough parts to build numerous more planes which they are always cool to see. We also have 75-100+ engines and who know how many engines worth of Merlin V12 blocks, cranks, heads and parts laying around.

One of our co-workers is big into model rocket launching and does launching events with the Cub Scouts/Boy Scouts at our local air force base and there is sometimes a Stealth plane left outside the hanger and he said in the mornings there are dozens of dead bats on the ground that flew into the plane overnight. Apparently, the sonar deflection does work well.....

North of Wichita, in a city called Hutchinson they have a great Cosmosphere and space museum. Very, very worth your visit. They have an SR71 inside the building.
