**Brother Bilo** · 08-08-2007, 11:58 AM

I was supposed to fly in one at an airshow about 8 years ago and the goddamn plane only ended up making the first flight because of some mechanical thing, so I got shafted.

I'd like to fly in an old B-25 too. That would be sweet.

**woj** · 08-08-2007, 12:56 PM

**pornguy** · 08-08-2007, 01:03 PM

Yea I saw the Russian one at Patrick AFB here in Florida when they brought over parts for the International Space Station. The plane was freaking huge. It dwarfed the C130's that were close by.

I love this kid of stuff! Recently by us the McClellan Aviation Museum just opened up and I went on the first day. What a blast.

I also went to an airshow a few months ago with a C130. Considering it's size, that fucker can take off like you wouldn't believe!

**StickyGreen** · 11-14-2007, 06:45 PM

You think those old things are cool, you should see the new shit the Air Force has like the TR-3B...

**gr-FX** · 11-14-2007, 06:46 PM

damn i love airplanes and fighter jets

**tony286** · 11-14-2007, 06:46 PM

damn very cool looking pictures.

**TripleXPrint** · 11-14-2007, 06:53 PM

Being an Airforce brat that had a father that made Brigadier and dating the daughter of a flight surgeon in Osan Air Base ROK, I was able to go up and fly in quite a few planes. I flew from Camp Zama in Tokyo to San Diego in a C5. Believe it or not, the seating area only fits about 40 or so but the cargo area is HUGE! You could play a game of football in the belly of that beast. They called it the Flying Tigers and cost $20.

I also flew in a F-16B (dual seat for training), AC-130 while it performed the pillar maneuver but never shot off a single round since it was training, and last but not least, a T-38 which is used to train jet pilots. My ultimate dream was to fly in an A-10 while it did its straffing runs but that just wasn't in my future anytime soon. All the planes I flew in were dual seat and more or less sight seeing missions. I was never in them when they went on gunning runs at Suwon AB or anywhere else.

I would give my left nut to fly a F-16..even the B version

**ProducerCashDave** · 06-24-2008, 09:41 AM

The B-52!!

**Adamh** · 06-24-2008, 09:54 AM

The stress of being responsible for something that big and expensive makes my mind swim! Hats off to the pilot

My grandfather flew b-17s in WWII on bombing missions throughout Germany. I was going to follow in his foot steps and become a pilot(in the airforce/navy), but Im not the type of guy who takes orders very well.

Such a beautiful piece of art work that plane is, but the b-52 s.f. is by far my favorite long range bomber, look at that pay load ^^, absolutely incredible.

**JimmiDean** · 06-24-2008, 10:10 AM

I believe that is the B-17 that belongs to the "Confederate airforce"
A group dedicated to the preservation of WW2 aircraft.
If its the same one I took my sun through it (on the ground) last year in Ottawa

**MOxxx** · 07-23-2008, 01:47 PM

she came back last week

**BradM** · 07-23-2008, 01:50 PM

Prop planes are insanely sexy. It's so sad so few made it back.

**BlueDesignStudios** · 07-23-2008, 02:11 PM

very cool pics, thanks for sharing!

**Scotty.T** · 07-23-2008, 03:43 PM

That very same plane was at my local airport a few weeks ago. It was on a tour of Europe to honour the war veterans.

Greg Norman's Gulfstream is currently parked up in the same spot it used

**baddog** · 07-23-2008, 03:46 PM

There was an airshow in N/W IN last weekend, you could fly on one for $300 or so.

I was tempted to fly back out there just to do that.

Do they put grab handles on the outside of the fuselage? How do you hold on tight enough for that long?
