Before I left the hangar last night, I crawled inside the B-25 for a few minutes. It was a tight fit for my 6-foot, 200-lb frame, even with much of the interior hardware removed for the restoration. Thinking back to wartime photos I've seen, I got a real sense of how cramped it must have been in combat with guns, ammunition, oxygen bottles, and crew. I thought about what it must have been like to be under fire from fighters or flak. Talk about "no place to hide"!

These photos are not "Berlin Express." I will post photos as the restoration proceeds.
