Nice capture.
Excelente captura, aplausos (5)
Nice view - we get to see the box shape alright. But, you say it was flown in, then is to be restored to flying condition. Oops - seems a bit of a contradiction here. Gave me a bit of a laugh. Any chance of a photo of the inside? Keep up the good work. :-)
Cool, great looking plane!
@T.Rex: I should have been more specific. It was flown in to the Buckeye Municipil Airport in 2016, but it was not in the original condition. For instance, this picture shows t with three-bladed props, it should have four-bladed props. There are many other parts that make it flyable, but the idea is to restore it to factory specs,
Great picture!
the museum at Grand Canyon flew a "Connie" to Chino for restoration. they had another airport lined up on the route just in case. I have not seen one of these in person
What a great old gal. I reckon they might have been the inspiration for Thunderbird Two!
I've got about 150 hrs in these!
Fantastic shot.
Ein toller Bomber ist das lieber Siggi!
what an aircraft !
A cool aircraft with lots of uses.
