Looks like great progress is being made.

It is amazing to see how far they have come. When it left Air heritage, it didn't even look like an airplane.

Is this the B-26 that Mr. Tallichet had stored at Herrington Kansas in late 80's, early 90's.
There was several T-28's, Sea Furies and other aircraft there.

Am I ever going to see a B-26 fly?

Yeah it probably is, because when this went to Beaver Falls nothing left Chino and I had heard one of the Million Dollar Valley B26s was in Kansas. Nathan, I know how you feel. I've seen a Marauder fly 3 times and it's something magnificent to see. I watched Carolyn take off once in Harlingen in October 86 when she was having some problems and I knew I may never get to see that particular airplane fly again and I was right, as it didn't fly in the show and it missed the Baltimore Marauder 50th reunion in April 91 thanks to an engine problem . Almost made it though. Darn.

Are you sure you're talking about the same aircraft? I don't believe Air Heritage ever had this B-26. This airframe has been at MAPS for at least 12 or 13 years.

It is the same for sure, I have confirmed this with the crew chief at MAPS, I used to be on the restoration team at Air Heritage years ago. I was like 14, and just cleaning stuff on the airplane at that point, but it was one of the best times of my life.
