This is the place where the majority of the warbird (aircraft that have survived military service) discussions will take place. Specialized forums may be added in the new future

Just curious, does anyone know if Jerry Yagen is a pilot, and if so, does he fly any of his warbirds?
He is and he flies all the single engined aircraft.

Something involving a lady and a snake, perhaps?

I believe I posted on my seeing this 25 take off from Air Acres in Woodstock, Ga, heading for gwinnett Co airport (as I understand it was to get the aircraft ferryable to Tidewater). I watched for awhile and I don't believe they raised the gear the whole trip. It sure looks like they took a "rough one" and made it sweet again.

Another one for the sky. Long live all the B-25 that fly!

Why this one? why did they buy such a deeply derelict airframe when there were a few dozen airworthy or ferriable aircraft available? Is is a B model?
THose pictures of it flying are a nice testament to Mr. Soplata's foresight and to Mr. Yagen's financing and team of workers.

Jerry's sorta vague on the nose art but I sent him a couple ideas.
Quick update - the aircraft is now with Sky Harbour in Goderich, Canada with paint being applied.

He regularly flies the Mustang, Spit, Hurricane, ME-108 that I know of. Here he's flying the Mustang at Geneseo:
