Default Too good not to share

I know its not jet related but I hope the Mods will allow this story of an Bell P-39 Airacobra That has come full circle. This is a really cool video on the history of this aircraft. Amazing what was preserved.

Enjoy

My favorite WWII warbird. Here's a pic of my 1/5th scale along with a Bell Jet

Gary, nice stuff!!! I also am a fan of the P-39 and 59. I grew up in Buffalo NY and my Dad worked at Bell Aircraft doing pattern work on the two planes. It's always been a dream to finish my Top Flight Gold Edition P-39 and get a P-59 from Grumania Jets.

Some day.

no mention of how or why it crashed? Great story though
