Agreed, great video. B-70 Hangar in the background, a red T-Bird driving by the hangar in the beginning, men working on airplane in the white shirts and ties, shapely ladies in nice stockings, seeing a P-51 and P-26 taking off with a Convair airliner landing in the background. All cool stuff, well worth the 16 minutes.

Perhaps the coolest part was the old projector sound effect. :lol:

Please confirm that Frank Compton was flying the P-51, I've known him for over 30 years, he passed away in Jan. 2011.

Thanks for the added info Rich. I normally don't post links to videos, but I thought this one was very unique. Next question: Is anyone working with Mr. Maloney on a biography? I think it would be well received ...
