SSHHHHH its a secret move.........Ill annouce it once its on the trucks! hahaha
Until then consider us just huntin r=wabit with trucks:)

I guess Ill have to delete that other thread:)

Don't care 'bout the wabbits- but if it has anything to do with bringing home a few B-25s from ungrateful people who imprison and torture them like that, then I am all for it! A B-25 is a beautiful bird which deserves to fly, or at the very least, spend its life in comfort.. Not being abused in the way the ones in the other thread are! That poor one with the broken back! Painful! And the amount of vandalism and spray paint- horrible...

Save Them if you can! Please!

Be carefull. I have delt with south of the border warbird importing. If an airplane belongs to the Air Force it belongs to the General in that Provence, not the goverment. He may sell it to you and you load it up and get to the border of the next provence (or state) and you will be stopped. Here you will have to buy it again from the next General. Bottom line don't pay for anything until it is in San Ysidro or you will get burned!

I am of no help in trucking anything. But, and with all sincerity, if this is what it appears to be then I am willing to volunteer to do whatever is neccesary to help disassemble and prepare for transportation. I have never worked on an aircraft in my life, but I am good wih tools and have a lot of energy.
