Warbird Information Exchange

I was going through my late father's aviation archives last night and came across this article on his old B-25.

I'm pretty sure my Dad flew both of those birds when they were military.

I used to hangar my 120 just across from them.

Great guys (gave me lotsa advice)

Great planes.

Sucky politics

One day I'll get that P-40!

Agree with that. There used to be a PBY stationed a few miles north of our city during the summer. The Forest Service would not renew the contract because they thought it was too old. Now we have nothing.

The last paragraph is somewhat prophetic ten years ago. Just think where Betty's Dream is now.

bgp429, what PBY was that? If you dont remember the #, do you remember the paint scheme?

As requested by Zorro 7, here's a few pictures over the years of my Father's old Mitchell, starting from 1972 up to 1992 and finally how it looks now (Betty's Dream) I've also included a picture of G+M and my father.
