We will take back roads to our destination, arriving at approximately 10:15 am. CAF CenTex is a "living history" museum; the aircraft on display are still flown today. Their WWII hangar is one of the few in the US still actively maintained and used, and their "Ghost Squadron" fleet spans a range of classes, including trainers, bombers, and fighters. Some of their standouts are a privately owned Zero and a B5N2 Kate, both used in the film "Tora! Tora! Tora!", as well as their P-39 "Miss Connie", one of only two in the world still flying today. More recently, they have undertaken a restoration of a 1916 Republic flatbed truck. Its wheels were just rebuilt in wood by an Amish family and shod in tires made of solid rubber, and it is currently being stripped down to be de-rusted and have its entire frame repainted, after which its restored engine and steering wheel will be installed.
