Bad week for vintage aircraft.

"The WWII era aircraft was built in 1958." I think they need to go back to school and take history again.

I was thinking the same, Thrash. I keep seeing "WWII warbird" associated with the T-28 in these stories.

On a better note, the B-25 at the local airport here flew without any drama whatsoever all day long.

I just read the article and it said "post-world war two". Looks like they corrected it, though they do not seem to know what era it belongs in, just that its not WWII... ::)
