Believe it or not...

Theres a B-25 in a hangar about a 15 minute drive from my place that got restored for display about.... 20 years ago.

I dont know why the hangar is there but it is, its nowhere near the current airbase still nearby and the now closed sister base not far away, and even further away from our nearest open airport!

I should go check it out one of these days.

Also got one of the RAAF museums nearby. You dont realise just how muthafuckin huge the prop on a P-51 is until youre standing next to it.

I'd love to visit one and dream of being a pilot or bombardier dropping bombs on nig nogs and pantifa or being a gunner firing Ma Duece at them. Isn't there a variant that had a modified 75mm gun? That would be awesome to fire. Some had multiple .50 cals in the nose, which is even better! A man can dream.
