I liked it. Well done.

I especially like the video of the takeoff. You can really tell how heavy the plane is. If you watch carefully you can see the plan really struggle as it leaves ground effect. Must have been an interesting ride.

Old planes always interested me. I remember when my brother got his pilots license in high school and flew for a few years into college. We would go up in Cessna's and Piper Cubs. We landed in a guy's back yard once on his grass runway. He ran the local airport and still cropdusts. Now, neither of us would get in one. We lost our edge I guess. My brother gets panic attacks and actually got one while driving my old Crx. Odd.
