Another Warbird could soon be flying again. Kermit Weeks and his crew at Fantasy Of Flight have started doing engine tests on their B-25, with the hope of having it back in the air very soon. Check out this awesome video they posted on the engine run. Lots of smoke, and boy do I love the sweet sound of those engines.

I love the way those Wrights sound....the initially sound like they are running rough but in truth they are running Wright!
Beautiful Aircraft. :drinkers: :supz:
