Awsome video of planes being put on display

[Pat Carry]

There's a whole thread on the B-17 "My Gal Sal," where I posted a link to this video the other day. She was never restored with the intent of being a flyer..she looks great cosmetically, but she was always intended to be a static restoration, so much of the structural work (the entire forward fuselage was rebuilt) was done to non-airworthy standards.

Watching the video, it also appears that the Mustang is a fiberglass replica rather than a real aircraft. I assume the SBD came out of Lake Michigan, but I don't know where the B-25, Corsair or TBM came from.

The museum had a replica SBD on display prior to the construction of this new building. One of the SBD's recovered from Lake Michigan 2 years ago is destined for the museum after restoration. I dont think that has occured yet.
