"The oldest B-25 WWII era bomber comes home from England to the Historic Flight, Restoration Hangar, opening March 1st, 2010 in Everett, Washington. This video documents Grumpy's official entry to the United States in Bellingham, WA and the final leg to Everett's Paine Field."
The aesthetic of the old, is so damned beautiful. Compared and contrasted to the new, you almost long for a return to the beautiful.
The Supermarine Spitfire is another plane that just screams out beauty. It just amazes me how much has been lost in the name of practicality and efficiency.
