RE: Blue Max Movie Museum
I really do not think it will ever be open to the public again. I was there in 2000 and got inside really by accident, it had been officially closed for some time then. The hangar which housed the museeum is slowly being taken over by PPS (Personal Plane Services). The story we got from the PPS staff was that visitors were getting in the way of the restoration staff, and they did not intend to open the museeum again.
While it was quite by accident that me and my friend got inside the door (it helps to be a foreigner), the guided tour we got from an employee of PPS was really supurb. Inside were such gems as the Weeks Tempest, Weeks Spitfire, Weeks Lysander, Weeks Autogyro, a lot of replicas from the Blue Max Movie. There were also two Bucker Jungmans under restoration there, one Jungmeister and some CAP aerobatic aircraft. This was a very enjoyable afternoon, as we had unrestricted acces to all the aircraft, as long as we kept our hands at a respectful distance
