Yesterday my Dad and I went for a flight in the B-25 Pacific Prowler at the Arlington Airshow. It's gonna be hard for any other day this year to top this one. Enjoy some pics!

That is cool stuff man. That pic of you and your dad is one for you guys to really cherish.

Great photos!
I still say that the best overall bomber warbird ride is a B-25 (as long as you can get into the glass nose!).
It's really a unique ride!
Looks like you migh have to make a new AVATAr now!

Great pictures! What a thrill that must have been.
You're pictures turned out very nicely, and the amazing scenery didn't hurt either. Lucky guy!!!

Yes, VERY nice -- thank you for posting! Why, I felt hot and sweaty, soundly jostled and half deaf just from looking at your photos, such FUN!

Looks like you had a grand time, SpookyTheCat! I'm more than a little jealous. When she's not touring, Pacific Prowler lives in our hangar. I've done a little work on her, but I've never been up for a flight. . .

Thanks for all the nice comments. We had a blast and it was so cool I got to do this with my Dad. The scenery was amazing. Definately worth the $$$.

Very cool and great to see you had the hatch open. What a fun time it must have been for the both of you.

That was a total luck shot on the taxi back in. It's Ross Granley's who flies a dual Yak routine with his father in the Yak 55 (In case you're not in the know
).

I watched Bud fly FHC's P-40 on Saturday then he had to jam up to Arlington to fly the Yak for the EAA show. Great shots!
