Wing Sections By Desoto

 

My 1947 Desoto with a B24-Liberator and a B-17 Flying Fortress at Napa (KAPC) Field.  A friend and I took a ride in the B-24 over the Napa valley.

If you have good bandwidth.

May 25, 2006  James gets to pilot a  North American NAB-25N Mitchell Bomber (#44-28932)  made in 1944.

I had a Once In A Life Time Experience on Thursday.  I was able to fly, with Sondra and a buddy riding along, a North American B-25 Mitchell Bomber.

I got to take her from Napa, CA out over the bay and did a sortie over the Golden Gate bridge.  I flew out over the golden gate and around the VA facility at the north-western part of San Francisco.

I passed by the bridge again and then once in the north bay dropped the B-25 down to 300 feet to get a sense of what the Doolittle Raids must have experienced on their way to Tokyo.

I was very lucky and will remember it for the rest of my life.
