Restoring a WW2 Aviation Gem
 
Quote:

CBS News
A veteran of World War II is UP IN THE AIR once again, thanks, Lee Cowan tells us, to a small army of volunteers ... and one very determined Korean War vet:
There are men with big plans … and then there’s Tony Mazzolini, whose plan was so big it took up a hanger the size of a football field.
Props to these guys and gals (pun intended) to getting "Doc" flying again!:salute:

What an absolute thrill to pilot the aircraft after the restoration. Even more so thrilling to see her fly again.
