| Plenty of hotels are in the area (10 mile radius). If youre serious, I will get you some information for which city to look for to stay.
As a bonus, the March AFB museum is a 30 minute drive away. They have LOTS of aircraft on static display.

There are more girls out there to choose from anyhow.

I knew it was a joke, but did not remember that it was from that movie.

Country: | in any case don;t miss it. went to one some years ago in the fall to hear hans Busch give his two cents about the war and flying the Me 262A-2. It was a first for Chino when they pulled out the recon 262 on display there. There was talk from several of the workers that the intent was to get the bird flying again. Great as well watching Marseille's old Bf 109E rebuild flying. The engine was purring like a kitten. After everyone left an hour or so they pulled the 262 around the hanger and Hans hopped in the cockpit and in his fluent German ran through the whole gammit of ready take off instructions as he had been trained to do so many years ago ........... that was special / wish someone would of been there to capture that on film.
March field is a worthy trip as well after the Chino experience with out a doubt I concur with Eric on that ...... and others. If I could swing it I would be down from parts north | |

Country: | I don't know the cost difference, but flying into Ontario Airport would be closer and easier than flying into LAX. I don't know of any hotels nearby as it's a local show for me. Let me see what I can find out.

Well, I love her to much. She's to good for me. Seems strange for a 17 year old to say, but hell, a real life Romeo and Juleit story I guess. Except the death part....
