						 Here I am in my Historic Flight Foundation "Grumpy" B-25 jacket, they are given to volunteers. I typically do a full day a week or about 400 hours a year.
  So far, I have gone up in both Beavers (wheel and amphib float), the Hamilton Metalplane, the DC-3 and Grumpy, the B-25D.
  Too bad the P-51B and Spitfire Mk. IXe are single seaters.
  Types in the collection I have flown in, but not the museum examples: T-6, Stearman, Staggerwing, Cub...
  And friends own some warbirds as well..Goose, Stearman, N3N, T-28 (2)...
  So, hanging around the museum is the next best thing to owning your own...or as I often say...if you don't have neat toys, be sure to have friends that do.
  Many thanks to them all for all the great experiences!
  Other warbird flights: H-13E (training in one, 40 hours!) and the never to be forgotten B-17G "Texas Raiders"...RIP to her and her crew. And while not a warbitd, some right seat time in a Ford Tri-Motor.
  And thanks to the USAF for giving me the honor to serve for 20 years and the chance to fly in modern watbirds...B-1B, B-52G, KC-135 A/R, C-130E/H, C-141B, AT-6A Texan II, T-43, UH-1N, MH-53, HH-60, C-21.
