    24 shoot downs! Impressive! I'd say that record was good, for some hauntings!

    Now, how about the land, where this Aviation Heritage Centre is located? Wondering if that land has ancient history, which could account for a few more, even older hauntings?

    I love it! Since my city is known for its haunted places, too.

    As an aviation buff, I still remember sitting in the cockpit of a Lanc.

    You might like the Mustang shots I posted recently (post title was `Mustang Tally')

    Cheers

    Sounds interesting. I've heard of haunted places but never been to one.
