Country: | Modern B-24 Footage
I happened to be at the airport with professional video equipment. Imagine my suprise when I saw a B-24 warming up (the same one in Les's photos) Security wasn't too happy when i broke out the camera and started filming...

Country: | I like the shot where you see the two engines and the cockpit. I probably have a minute of just that. I could watch it on loop for hours!

Country: | Excellent Pics!
I see that the B24 is now Witchcraft instead of Dragon and his Tail.
I was lucky enough to see 909 and D&T about 7 years in a row at one of our local annual shows. Of course my pics aren't as nice as yours!
Excellent Job! Thanks for sharing! | |
