Cool pics. I have a subtle brag about that place.

A few years before Ike I happened to be playing on the Moody Golf Course on the same Saturday the museum was having one of their air shows. The back 9 essentially butts up to their runway, so I go to enjoy the entire show from a spot closer than the spectators. I saw several of the planes from your photos flying and doing the fake bombing runs. It was, by far, the coolest round of golf I ever played. Took 2.5 hours to play the back 9, and nobody cared. Every hole had golfers just slowly playing and watching the show.

I think the coolest part was a stealth bomber that was moving forward at a slow stall not 50 feet directly above my head. It was crazy, and something I'll never forget.
