I think there are only like 14 still flying. Might be a few more, but not much.

I saw it yesterday when I was down there. Looked like the Nine O Nine. Despite having been up for about 30 hours, I still took a minute to listen to those Wright Cyclones rumble. I love that airplane.

Was orbiting the city along the front range. Sound was beautiful. Don't know which one it was. Tried to get a pic but was too late. How many of these things are still flying? Patrick Grew up in the Springs. They were there all the time. |

I flew on a B-25 (the Pacific Prowler) a few years ago.
It was awesome (and scary as s**t!) crawling into the nose turret while airborne.... |
