Warbird Information Exchange

I admit it... I was entertained. He's no Eminem, but I won't bag on somebody willing to take a new path to honor our vets and bring the awesomeness of Warbirds to a whole new audience.

Good on ya, Granger.

Lynn

Very cool!

I knew there was a reason I liked you Rick.... Does this mean I get a free flight in the F-4 if I can fit in the seat?

JUST KIDDING!

Are you going to make Alliance this year?

Nope no Alliance. We have other pending commitments after we finish some A-4 upgrades and the F-4 100 hr.

I'll take it! You even changed your signature! That's amazing!

We're considering attempting a spoof featuring the B−25. Watch for it, it's gonna be insaaaaaane.

Wow, that is freakin' hilarious!

Even my wife got a kick out of it.

So he basically did a lousey job of covering "I'm on a Boat" and substituted B-24 for Boat. Wow.

The B-17 is an airplane
Constructed of rivets and tin
With a top speed of over a hundred
The plane with the headwind built in

(Can't remember the rest; it was in a Stalag Luft book I used to have - think it's a version of a song about the B-26)

Interesting. I'm sure it isn't everyone's thing, but it gets the B-24 out there to people who haven't heard much of WW2 history.

I can't see it being played at airshows or as a background on DVDs, but it'd certainly make a change from "In the mood" and "Take the A train", which have been done to death.

Cheers,
Matt
