As many of you MIGHT have cottoned on, I like airplanes. I love going to air museums, air shows, and aircraft wrecks. I love 'em. So, imagine my surprise this morning while I was on top of a tractor mowing, when I glanced up from the grass and saw a familiar outline. I nearly toppled off of the mower! That is a B-25, built by North American Aviation, and used during WWII. What the heck was it doing flying over MY neck of the woods?
Smart phones are a wonderful invention. I typed in the name of the nearest air museum and voila, I had an article telling me there was a B-25 in the area until Friday. I decided I should probably visit, so I did. Here are the pictures... artistically modified.
It is extremely cramped in that thing. Not nearly so big as it appears on the outside! This is a member of the Commemorative Air Force and is based out of Mesa, Arizona. They fly it all around the West! You just have to love these machines!
