I kind of cheated. The British car clubs I belong were invited to put 
on a display at the Nebraska Air National Guard Air Show. I saw MGs 
(Ts through Bs including my A) Triumphs, Austin Healeys, Jaguars, and 
at least one Rolls Royce (Merlin in a P51 Mustang-don't know if the 
others were Allisons or Merlins). Also saw the Tora Tora Tora group, 
and the USAF Thunderbirds. For me the Highlight was when the 
commanding General of the Nebraska Air National Guard asked for a 
ride in my MGA. What do you say to a General on his base who asks for 
a ride? Yes Sir! Where do you want to go?

It was a wonderful way to spend a Sunday
