I love watching them fly Wild Cargo. From what you can see from the outside or poking your head in the crew hatches when they are open, its just as good looking as the outside. Can't wait to see what she will be up in the air with this year for Warbirds Over The Beach. :) Last year was great C-47, B-25, B-17, and a Lancaster, followed by the PBY and JU-52. :), can't wait to see what Jerry and the boy's have planned for this year.

Great action shots! You really captured a sense of motion with just the right amount of blur in just the right places. Got any more pics to share?

Hey Paul, Do you know how long it was from the time it was removed from the property in Ohio 'till it was airborne again?

I certainly agree. It amazes me to see "photographers" post photos of prop-jobs that look as though each propeller is feathered. They get great shots of the jets, but cannot master prop blur like you have.

A great thank you to the Late Mr. Steven A. Detch of Woodstock, Georgia and his crew/team for doing such a wonderful job on bringing this Bomber back among the flyable :supz:
