Flying Tigers Warbird Museum

 

Tom Reilly's Flying Tigers Warbird Restoration Museum is situated on Kissimmee Municipal airfield and is at the north end of the airfield at the end of taxiway ‘Charlie’. This Museum is a complete anomaly in the aviation Museum world. While there are plenty of beautifully preserved and fully functional military aircraft to see, the real action here is in the numerous restoration projects on-going all around. Unlike facilities where the workshops are off limits or cordoned off from visitors, here the Museum is actually in the workshop.

Unfortunately my book is now out of print with Seager Publishing and Flyer Magazine and I am currently working on a complete update to be published in due course.
