Received this on one other forums I watch, thought maybe you would be interested. They have a great collection...
Just a reminder of the Armed Forces Day event at the Pueblo Weisbrod Aircraft Museum located on the grounds of the Pueblo Memorial Airport (PUB) on 21 May 2011. It is a FREE DAY at the museum. A TBM Avenger Torpedo Bomber from World War II will be on display and available for rides for a fee. Please call or email the museum for additional information on the cost to fly aboard the Avenger.
For information on the Avenger Torpedo Bomber, go to : http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/TBM_Avenger
We hope to see you all at this educational and fun event.
