Heart Attack of the best kind.
« on: April 12, 2011, 02:18:15 AM »
So, every year the Collings Foundation comes out here to Concord, CA with their WWII planes. Was looking up the tour dates, and it turns out that they are having a 262 with them this year! :O :O :O :O :O :O :O :O :O :O :O :O :O

My heart literally skipped a beat when I saw this. So very excited.

And that last I saw in their newsletter they should be doing rides in the 262 as well as the bombers and P-51.

Is it this one? Taken a few years ago at Paine Field. We toured their facility, and they happen to be rolling her out that day with some other WW2 stuff for a video


(That's Raubovel if anyone remembers him from AH past years)

No, the pilot had extra long legs so the seat had to be moved back. :devil :angel:
