The Best Years of our Lives makes me mad every time I see those proud warriors smashed up and turned into pots and pans..... :o

What we now know that we didnt know then :( Some day their will be a group maybe not in most of our lifetimes that they too will be looking back and saying Why did they melt down the F-4's F-14's F-16 the 105 thunder chiefs C131 C130 A-10' Tornado's B -52 C's D,s just to name a few .
As we look back that how the most mighty Airforce that man has ever known was melted away for Razor blades and and Unbrella frames.
Have we not learnd from History ? Very nice tribute to the B-17 that deserved so much more than what it and so many of her sisters got.

I am so glad that they got the engine sounds right- a whole lot better than the Cessna soundtrack they used on teh "The War"

Wow! :shock: That is cool. Auto start, great over dubbing of the sound track. Very cool!

Now, back to work on that time machine.... 8)

I'm not sure that was auto start. I think that was shutdown played backwards. :)

You're probably correct as I have not heard of starters on even these size engines. Clever video though.
