Been in John Van Andel's TBM 88HP. GREAT RIDE!!!! I still smile when i think about it!!!
I was supposed to go with Robbie in Chapter XI but I never seemed to be in the right place at the right time. That was back in the wings of war days. Shame where chapter XI is now!!! But not been in a B-25 is my fault. I could have gone in Dean Martin's B-25 "pacific princess" when he owned it here in VT before she became in the hands of the LSFM.
