The Mid-Atlantic Air Museum's 16th Annual WWII Weekend is almost here!

ABOVE: Northrop P-61 “Black Widow”


The MAAM's 16th annual World War II Weekend happens June 2, 3, and 4 in Reading, PA.

For war bird freaks, it doesn't get much better than this. Aerial demonstrations, war bird rides, you name it, they've got it.

My absolute favorite is the P-61 Black Widow night fighter the museum has been painstakingly restoring for years. When they get her airborne, she will be the only one in the world that can fly. But the planes are just the beginning.

There are huge US, Allied, and Axis encampments, mock battles, memorabilia sales, big band music, food, and WWII vets swapping war stories.

It is a wonderful way to spend a day or three with your family. Bring the kiddies and show them real live history, up close and personal.

And if you can't make it this year, it happens every year on the first weekend in June.
