Great video's MilitaryAttractions. Thanks for posting them not only here but on Youtube for all to enjoy.

I had the chance to see Panchito, one of the B-25's in your video, up close and personal at an airshow. The air show had other aircraft including a North American T-6 Texan trainer aircraft and Russian Yak fighter aircraft. A P-51 Mustang was scheduled to be there as well but had had engine problems in the week before the appearance which remained unsolved. The P-51 didn't make an appearance at the airshow. I made a few purchases that day including Panchito patches.

All of the puchases and the entry fee's help keep these aircraft flying. You could also purchase rides aboard the B-25 in various locations including the engineer's seat behind the pilots. I had no idea there were 11 surviving B-25 bombers left.



Panchito was the star attraction that day and most stayed to salute it when it took to the air and departed.
