While we're on the subject of cold war ghosts, here's a bunch of pics I took at a little regional airport in southern Delaware. I was just driving by and caught a glimpse of the MiG, which surprised the heck out of me. I stopped and knocked on the hangar door, and got to see some cool stuff.
B-25 Mitchell!!!!!!!!!
That was the first model airplane I ever built! Thanks for bringing up old memories!

Unless I miss my guess, that's Panchito in the lead in your picture. I talked to the owner for quite a while. Amazingly cool guy. They were giving her a checkout because they were going to fly her the next day. B-25's always been one of my all-time favorites, too.

It's been tried but it still doesn't work, at least for me.

The model I built had the 8 gun nose with the full greenhouse.
