B-25 incident at Jardin Ranch 26 Mar 11

[Jesse C.]

OK, everyone (including the newspapers and stations) have it all wrong.

The B-25 noted above was NOT the airplane involved in this instance. It was a hulk purchased from Aero Trader and just painted up to look like Mr. Lewis' B-25. This incident did not happen as noted above, but is actually a continuation of the movie being filmed as noted a while back. Let me give you some real information so everyone will just stop spreading these unnecessary rumors.

Here is the plot of the movie being filmed.

Our Governor of Texas has decided to go ahead and secede from the United States and has been secretly preparing everything that is needed in order to complete this. He realizes that the moment he makes the announcement, the US government will remove all war assets from the state of Texas, leaving a huge hole in security for the New Republic of Texas (NRT). While having a secret closed door meeting with his new cabinet it is noted that two of his largest benefactors, Mr. Rad Lewie and Tommy and Donny Friedcan, happen to own probably the largest combined collection of WWII warbirds in the world especially when they draw in all of their friends who are warbird owners.

A secret meeting is planned for late March at a undisclosed location in South Texas and all of the warbird owners come together to plan the creation of the NRT Air Force. It is announced that all the warbirds are to become fully operational with all weapons systems fully functional. Meanwhile, the Governors wife (played by Angelina Jolie), who is an accomplished pilot herself, is in attendance at the meeting and while taxiing out for a practice sortie in one of the NRT bombers, is attacked by a group of black ops unit members from the Old United States thereby rendering one of the NRT bombers in-effective.

I will leave the rest of the grand movie to your imaginations.

Before I call Bullshift on you, who are you? What is with the sudden rash of new posters with no info, intro or anything suddenly appearing with all kinds of opinions and info? Disgruntled members or ex-members who do not want to sully their name or stir the pot under their reputable screen names? Come on!

You have to give us a bit more than that!

Before things get too far out of hand, I believe KSTA007's post is something of an "inside joke" which is related to a recent post here at WIX regarding an incident with Mr. Lewis's Bearcat and subsequent attempts to obscure what really happened. I really don't think his post was meant to be nefarious in any way. My .02 cents.

That was one crazy thread and it got locked. Miss leading information came from several directions.

How many fake accidents this year are Rod's planes going to have? Sick of it already.

There are people out there that don't take everything so seriously. It must be slow news day on WIX...

Great post. I imagine it's pretty annoying to some people when "incidents" get posted so very quickly. I bet it makes it hard to keep a low profile with the FAA for starters.

That's what happens when you have high profile toys.
If they're that bothered by their visibility I'd tell them to fly a 172.
No, if you want to play big shot at the Country Club, airshow, or local field by having a warbird, you've got to put up with the good and the bad.

I do understand that, but I think that it shows that a lot of people have more curiosity than discretion. It should not be that folks are entitled to information about others. Just think of hospital privacy laws...

I cringed at that comment too. Unfortunately, that's how a lot of the public perceives warbirds..dangerous old junkers that shouldn't be flying. Frankly, I'd sooner trust my butt to most warbirds than a commercial airliner..warbirds tend to be much more pampered.

You have that right, I sweat out every flight on a commercial airline. Ifin I was a CEO of my own major corporation in America, I would live in the KKrib-e-on, and motor around in a PBY and have a B-25 parked near by, Naturally this would be a hopeless effort on my part to avoid paying taxes

That would be the life...


Back on topic, I think it's just good to hear that everyone was alright in the B-25 incident. Even though I have seen very little info on the events (just what I've read here), it could have turned out a lot worse. In the end, the world gets to keep a B-25 and however many lives were on board.

I bet it's as embarrassing as it is expensive to have a bent warbird on your hands (or your conscience).

In my opinion (for whatever that is worth), I am not sure we would have even heard about this if it had not made the "news" due to the First Lady of Texas, Anita Perry, being on board. There are incidents like this don't ever make the news even on WIX if the participants or spectators don't make it public in some way.

[Mike]

But those that get reported to the FAA go on their published database, and so will get endlessly dissected by the 'armchair experts' on various fora, as is the way with the internet.

I'm sure there are still many 'under the radar' incidents and accidents that go unreported, even in this day and age.
