B25 Ride
March 14th, 2009 I had the pleasure of going for a ride in another Warbird, a B25 Mitchell Bomber. Just think...This was the same type of plane that took off from an aircraft carrier and bombed Japan. This B 25-J, Killer Bee, is owned and flown by Tom Reilly. On this ride Don "Beetle" Bailey sat in the left seat and Tom was in the right seat. I went for a ride with Don in his L29 jet a few years ago...some difference between his jet and "Killer Bee". (Click on this link to view that ride)
Tom always participates in the Valiant Air Command Warbird Airshow and this year was no exception, except he did a bombing run this year. He wowed the crowd.

Everyone helps park "Killer Bee".
Yes, we push it into the parking place.
I shot this from the ground as Tom did the "Photo Pass"
Of course, I have to have a photo with Tom and Killer Bee
