So much envy!! Who's 17 if you don't mind me asking??
You know ..I actually don’t know the true owner.

The big war birds seem to belong to a “group” of sorts. I can’t remember a single guy owning a b-24 etc.

I know a few guys who own P-51, p-40 type planes but no 4 engine single owners.

My brother snd actually got to pickle 4 “bombs” each. Aboot 250 pound cement dummies.

Guessing you were at KSCK at Taigh's place for bomber camp the other week... They used Ye Olde Pub from the Erickson collection in Madras Oregon this year for bombing duties.

They used to use 909 from the Collings foundation for bomber camp, but it crashed and burned a couple of years ago due to a mess of cobbled together fixes and maintenance issues (you'll stop and shake your head several times reading through the NTSB incident report and investigation.)
