I went to the Silent Wings Museum after visiting the Buddy Holly Museum. With the paid admission to the Buddy Holly Museum you get in free ... what a value!!
I wasn't too exposed to the glider history during the wars and beyond, but this museum packed a lot in! Unfortunately I didn't have lots of time to go through...
