DAYTON, Ohio (AP) - Snoopy would probably love this.
Others who also imagine what it was like to be a World War I flying ace can get a glimpse of a 100-year-old past at the WWI Dawn Patrol Rendezvous set for Sept. 27-28 at the National Museum of the U.S. Air Force near Dayton.
The event features full-scale and nearly full scale reproductions of triplanes, with pilots landing on the field behind the museum. Visitors can get a close view and try their hands at computer simulators.
The museum says more than 100 radio-controlled model aircraft will take to the skies for demonstrations of WWI dogfights, formation flying and dropping bombs.
Also featured at the free event are a re-enactor encampment, and an above-ground trench for a look at how trench warfare was waged.
