I got a ride on a plane that has eluded me since I started my warbird interest many years ago (19 years to be specific).  The North American B-25 Mitchell medium bomber has always been a favorite of mine, and there happens to be quite a few still flying… yet I have never flown on one.

Until today that is.  Thanks to Jack Fedor of the Warbirds Unlimited Foundation in Mesa, I got a spot in the back of the B-25H “Barbie III” on a flight this afternoon. 

I am going to be doing a lot more work with the group in the near future, and happen to be working on building them a new website currently too.  They have a beautiful aircraft and are a great group of people too… so I’ll be right at home.

A video of me in the tail position and more photos of the flight after the jump.
