    I'm always fascinated by this plane. I actually got to meet a fellow that piloted one in WWII for the Luftwaffe while I was in Germany.

    We have one that flys out of a local airport near my house. Also a B-25, and some russian WWII planes. Nothing like sitting in the back yard on a warm sunny Saturday, and listening to them fly over...

    First movie I remember ever watching was Memphis Belle... First model I ever built was Memphis Belle. Got to sit in Memphis Belle at an air show... Any 8 year old plane nuts wet dream. Something you don't get in modern aircraft today is the smell, you know what I'm talking about? That raw fuel, oil... Other stuff.... Really from a more sensory time in aviation.

    Easily one of the most impressive aircraft still flying today. Wonder what the operational cost is for that behemoth?
