The Super Rabbit Headed for Dingo Land

[Jack Cook]

Our B-25J just sold and should be out of the EVG Museum in the next few weeks and start being preped for it's journey to it's new home.
I can't tell you exactly where but it's going to the land of dingos and shrimp on the barby and will be joining some other heavy props. You can figure the rest out
I'm glad it's getting the h*ll outa of EVG and back in the air but am sure
going to miss her!!!

[Matt Gunsch]

Hey Jack,
Maybe if they ferry her there you can go along. Last B-25 that flew there had a TV special made about the flight. OH, make sure paul hogan is not stowed away on board, I heard he is hiding from the Aussie version of the IRS.

[Jack Cook]

No way in H*ll I'll do that!!
Did it in a P-3 and that was slow enough.
I need lots of frills and redundancy

What more redundancy do you need ? 2 engines, 2 props, 4 mags, 2 carbs, 2 generators, and as far as frills, I am sure if you ask they will be glad to supply you with all the fosters, cheetos and penthouse mags you need.

I already volunteered to fly with them to Austrailia! Crash told me this at the airshow but I was sworn to secrecy at the time. She's going to a very good home but I sure hate to see her leave the US!! At least it's out of EVG, so maybe it won't get rammed into on a regular basis! I'm deaf from the experience but I sure enjoyed flying it it!

And here I thought Brian would buy it for me as a present!

[Jack Cook]

Have fun Brad and be sure to take your swin fins!!!
Chuck closed the deal Sat after talking with Jim.
BTW good luck with the B-36 project!!

Jack,

do you have any pictures of your B25J for us downunder to salivate about?

Great news from down here's point of view, the last one was a loss to us.

[Jack Cook]

Yes and I hate all you guys now

[Ryan Keough]

Jack, you're welcome aboard "Barbie III" anytime... if you don't mind slumming it with us "solid nosers."

Think of it as a good reason to escape the rainy NW in the winter!

[Jack Cook]

I'll take you but on that!! But, it's 94' here but I understand it's snowing in AZ

[warbirdcrew]

If one was to fly it down there, I have a custom-made 500 gallon fuel tank that fits into the bomb bay which was made for another trans-pacific B-25 flight and which needs a new home.

I dunno where ya'll are hearing that... the only white stuff I am seeing down here is being sold by ruffians in South Phoenix! Made it to 113 today!

Here is noizeedave's solution to the ferry tank problem:
