Our approach, however, is not to glorify conflict but rather to make a future generation aware of the fact our way of life does not come without sacrifice." From jeeps, side arms, ear

ly year aircraft, fighter jets recently retired from active duty, to antique ambulances, bombardier sites to modern missiles, from one of the earliest pilot's licenses issued by the FAA to unique personal items carried into combat during the previous century, from artifacts of airplanes which made aviation history, to piles of parts destined to end up as pieces of a fully restored vintage aircraft, you will find a unique collection of aircraft and artifacts. Preserving the equipment and the memories of those who came before us while preserving a bit of history, we have dedicated the museum to the men and women who are serving, whom have served, and, or sacrificed their life while in the military. On July 19th, 2009, The Estrella WarBirds Museum added a new facility, The Woodland Automobile Display Building, which preserves yet another chapter of history, automobile racing. Those involved with the Estrella Warbirds Museum have banded together with a common goal of honoring the past, while inspiring the current and future generations. We do not, in any way, want to stray from our previously stated primary mission dedicated to the restoration and preservation of military aircraft, vehicles and memorabilia of those who flew or worked on them. This work will continue, full steam ahead as we add additional aircraft and related memorabilia. When our men and women come home from military service, most no longer have access to those wonderfully fast screaming, flying machines. Many found those interests fulfilled through the building, modifying or racing of automobiles. Now, we can add another chapter of preserved history by complimenting those interests (and opening the doors to a younger generation). This is our gift to Paso Robles and the outlying communities. The Woodland Auto Display is filled with classic automobiles, historical racing cars, and unique artifacts from the world of automobile history and racing.

The He 162 Salamander is now up and hanging in Hangar 1 to honor Harold "Hal" Bauer on the first of his chapters of aviation. Yes, he was ferrying a He 162 Salamander or Volksjager "People's Fighter" for the German Luftwaffe during WWII and was shot down. Due to his dual German/US citizenship, he quickly helped the Allies at the end of WWII and even joined the US Navy after and flew EC-121s Warning Stars against the Soviets in the Cold War.
Thanks to Ron Brooks and Scott Stelzle for hanging the model up and Walter Collett for crafting this very unforgiving balsa wood model!!!!

Fenced in Festivities!
The old adage that it takes at least 4 restoration crew guys to reinstall fence links is true, no matter what anyone tell s you!
In all seriousness, Cael Gann, James Messieo, Kevin Boles and Rick Cimino all pitched in to put the fence link segments back in adjacent to the EWM taxiway. A job well done and no appendages were lost!

Continuing Sherm Smoot's legacy and honoring Veterans for their service through Honor Flight.
We had the absolute honor and privilege to fly local Veterans on Betsy's Biscuit Bomber today for an hour-long flight over the Central Coast. The Veterans were treated to a flight in the C-47B just as it was set up in WWII and even accompanied by Virginia Ann, a C-47A visiting from Southern California.
Upon returning, the Veterans were provided lunch by Honor Flight of the Central Coast who are incidentally doing a huge fund raiser (Wine & Dine Pour Fest 2) in Hangar 1 at Estrella Warbirds Museum tonight! Thanks for all their help and the amazing job they do for Veterans!

A nice walk in the field....
This field was full of tractors and military equipment! The EWM lineup of vehicles that went to the "Best of the West" Antique Equipment Show 5/22-5/24/26.
Wait, is that the sign for the HUMVEE that would soon be run over...?
If you look closely... it's a match! See the EWM post from yesterday for the full impact of this!

Museum Info Sign vs HUMVEE!
This was not much of a match. This is the outcome when the HUMVEE narrative sign decided to match up with the HUMVEE tire that was attached to the HUMVEE that had a human driving it....
For any of you wagering on this... the sign was not the winner!
Yes, a new sign is on the way, and this besmirched sign will be retired and be able to spend its golden years with other signs and narratives. They even have a pickle ball court and can often be seen playing chess with each other. Rock, paper scissors is frowned upon............
