Adrenaline time! The Dutchies brought a full grown B-25 Mitchell in! He surprised us all by doing a touch-and-go when he arrived...

...


And then they put here somewhere in the middle of the pack! No clear views or opposite-sunlight!

...


Luckely she did a little demo-flight... Man, they flew her like a fighter! She climbs like a rocket and turns like... I don't know, but 90° turns in a bomber? Awesome!

...


Gorgeous, but shooting her in mid-air prooved difficult. I need more practice...

...


Settling back to give her a deserved rest. The crew was awarded with a round of applause...

...


Still to come... more classice, modern GA and TR.9!

( tell me if I bore you guys...)

Yeah, #4 is really fantastic. Gives a good impression of the mass of that airplane.

The B25 definitely is a nimble one in the right hands- it was often used as a low-level bomber, and even as a  gunship.

I haven't seen shots of that one for ages, thanks. Smiley

Is it still owned by the Duke Of Brabant Air Force?

There are two types of aeroplane, Spitfires and everything else that wishes it was a Spitfire!

To answer Heats Question: Yup Still DBAF! She was just added to the Dutch registry ( Or will be soon ) As PH-XXV

They really know how to fly that thing indeed! Amazing what they can do with it!
