Your Flickr page would only load 4 images, but they looked OK to me.

Thanks guys. I'm not sure whats wrong with my page. It loads all of them for me. The thing I don't like about these is I could not fit the entire plane in most of the photos. I was using the kit lens and just was not able to zoom out enough.

Nice pics... You had 100 ISO for the inside shots. I was playing around with my 40D in an old barn and 100 ISO was pretty dark. I bumped it up to ISO 1000 and I was really surprised at how well that works. Where is that museum? Might be a nice weekend trip if its local. (Midwest)

Yeah I kept it at ISO 100. I wanted to capture the way it really looks in the museum. Its pretty dark. They say its to help preserve the aircraft. The museum is located in Dayton, OH. Its only a 40 minute flight from Chicago.

I like the images a lot. You have indeed captured the atmosphere very well and the shots do the old warriors a lot of justice. Great work!

You did a good job. The lighting there is terrible, it's like being in a cave. The hanger on base has the best lighting.

Thanks. I also made a pano shot, but its hard to make out after shrinking the image down for the posting.

Good job on the pano.

I agree. It's a very interesting view. I've kept looking at it for quite a while. :)

Well done on all as that's a hard place to shoot. Thanks for sharing them...
