Video

I wish that they put that on display permanently. Makes a great diorama display.

Didn't anyone think it was good to see BaBaa Wawa !?

Lol horrible experience but his humor about it had me laughing with him

Glad she was saved, got to go on the B17 they used in the 1989 movie and had my son watch the 1943 documentary

Great video! The cinematography, story, and narration is fantastic. A great collaboration between both museums that will hopefully raise awareness of the Packard museum in Dayton. I would love to see more of these types of videos posted.

heureusement que les américains sont là pour faire perdurer la mémoire. En France le musée Jean Salis à la Ferté Allais est également exemplaire et magnifique.

My father was in the Korean War, 1951, in the 24th Infantry, 26AAA. We have pictures of him in a half track with quad 50s just like this one. This halftrack appears to be 24th Infantry, 25AAA if the markings are correct. Any idea if the 2 units operated together? I’d be happy to share my father’s photos if the owner or museum would like.

Almost a lifting body similar to the Dana soar

This may be my favorite Air Force Museum video ever. I don't know why, but I love both that the car came in through a random side door and that it was driven through the building.

Nice 👍

It was fortunate that the city of Memphis saved it from the scrap yard. Otherwise there would have been no Memphis Belle to restore

Razy. I met Bud years ago. Back in Chicago area. I used to install major household appliances. He was a great conversation when working. Great man and awesome to hear and see him again. God bless and thank you Bud.

You recover the greatest planes. Great job guys

Gotta love all birds.

Is it going into storage permanently, or will it return?

New one for me,love it ❤

Is this a Fighter,a bomber or a Recon aircraft?

Bastards

cute little aircraft

Such a gorgeous airplane

The king of low flight deep strike fighter Bomber! The Tornado is one of the most beautiful Fighter ever built and is no dunky this beast can do Mach 2 easily, oh yes baby,looks nice on the cold war museum i hope you guys have a Harrier or the AV8-B Harrier II

Just saw it at the museum today. Great build!

Cool!

One of my Great Grandfathers was a Signalman during WW1. I always think about the balloons they used when I see modern HABs

My initial T-38A Instructor Pilot when I attender USAF pilot training was “the only fully qualified pilot in this room”, Major Jim Maxam. His first assignment in the AF was flying these in SEA. A good man, I hope he is alive & well.

No matter what their faults were, these were still beautiful birds of which properly did their jobs when called upon and of which always brought their crews back home again if and when they stood a chance of doing so by not being shot down by either enemy Flak or by enemy fighter aircraft. Also praise and much deserved credit to the uncredited and unpraised workers back home in America of which both designed and built these wonderful planes to endure such war hazards and yet still remained flyable.

Next time make sure you put the name of the plane!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Is this satellite still on display or just for this exhibition some years ago? Also is it fully functional or just a mock-up?

Quando o cinema americano vai produzir um filme sobre esse Grande Às da Primeira Guerra mundial?

Im going friday i miss the we1 observation ballon i actually kinda teard up when i saw it was gone

This is my favorite museum in ohio and im going june 21

I hope it goes on display, cool tunes.😎👍

Absolutely Beautiful flying machine and a beauty to behold in flight I'm presently working on a late 60's vintage QuickSilver Hang Glider which is being converted to a powered ultralight, based on le Demoiselle. I'm using a '68 Yamaha DT-1's 250cc engine for power and the only thing which will vary from the original will be a Fokker style rudder similar to the D-VI due to personal preference and 'artistic license', as wepl as the complexity of the originals' rudder /elevator system. And will eventually will build anothet set of wings with a more modern airfoil, such as the Clark-Y to imcrease the overall efficiency of the aircraft in flight. In the meantime I hope to see more videos of your bird in flight as she definately deserves more "air time", both on You Tube and in the sky.

Verti jet..the vertijet.

A true part of aviation history, stood the test of time and deserves to be saved. All the best to those that have helped keep her safe, will restore her and any part in the up keep and restoration of this icon 👍💪

❤❤❤+❤❤❤ For those I love , I would scorch the earth !

I wish the WWI observation balloon could be restored and put back on display. The Early Years Gallery just isn't the same without it!

I'm so glad you're not like the Yankee Air museum..... I'll never go to that trash again. Thank you for remaining beautiful. & Not stain. Way to go Yankee Air Museum. Whore

I've always wanted to see someone paint nose art on a plane. I enjoyed the video.

Try not to crash this one...😮‍💨

The actress Swoosie Kurtz was named after this aircraft, as she is the daughter of the pilot.

You gentlemen are extremely fortunate to be able to take part in seeing this beautiful bird take flight again. Ive seen B29 FROZEN IN TIME..The Kee-bird met a sad end due to the pilot -Daryl whatsisface being in a hurry- bouncing that poor aircraft like a ping-pong ball.They had a ghetto set up for auxiliary power and it caugt fire. It BURNED to the ground because of him..

Kyra Sedgwick, Kevin Bacons wife is also related to the pilot of this aircraft ( I think ). Comment below does reference his actress daughter Swooze , I probably getting too many late night TV shows mixed up.. I hope they just restore and not fly it.

Is that a Monica in the background?

Please keep them coming! It's very exciting. Perhaps you could make the videos cumulative - each new stage is added to the previous one, and the video becomes longer and more complete.

I’m at the museum right now! Awesome work

I like the older version

The US Air Force melted down about 20,000 good B-17s and B-24s after WW2 to make little puddles of aluminum. Why didn't they save about 500 of each plane?????

My Grandpa Jack Gasdorf was a TSgt on a B-17. I want to find out more about his specific bird(s) and the crew(s) he flew with.

Fast bird. 🎉
