One of the most outstanding aircraft ever built. I recently had the chance to get up close and personal with this one. Over 2,000 HP radial engine the power and noise is exciting, especially when you stand behind it like I did when it started to taxi. Lot of fun for me. A few shots are below, enjoy them.
A low pass over the airfield.

Wings folded and aircraft tied down.
Getting ready to taxi, engines have just fired up and blue smoke is pouring out the exhaust.
This fantastic aircraft was restored and flown by Jim Tobul in honor of his Father Joe who flew this type aircraft for the USMC in WW2. Quite an Honor.
Thanks for stopping by, please check back next week.
