We have begun our \u201c2012 SAWE Tour\u201d. Our first stop was at the Flying Heritage Collection (FHC). See their website<\/a>\u00a0on March 27th, 2012. Located at Paine Field, Everett, the FHC is a remarkable collection of airplanes. The collection belongs to Microsoft\u2019s Paul Allen and consists of flying examples of some of the most famous and rare WWII airplanes. Among his flying Spitfires, Hurricanes and Bf-109s, his collection contains a brilliantly restored flying B-25 Mitchell. A Nakajimi Ki-43 Oscar, a Russian Sturmovik and the last FW190 built all appear in another row of amazing flying aircraft. There is an ME-163 Comet, a piloted Comet, a P-51D, P47 and P40C available for drooling by the enthusiast. A Lancaster nose section overlooks a Polikarpov I-16 and U2 (The \u2018Night Witches\u2019). The A6M3 Zeke sits near the Fiesler F103 Storch. One also sees a Flak 88mm gun, a Herter and T-34 tank for good measure. We enjoyed this tour greatly and HIGHLY recommend it!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
