B-25 over the south bay today...

[AirDOGGe]

Around 2o pm, I left a friend's house in San Martin (pronounced San Mar-`TEEN) to head back home to Mtn View, 40 miles to the north.

While departing, I noticed the B-25 was still sitting there within eyeshot of the freeway at South County Airport.


Well, back at home an hour and a half later that day, around 3:30 pm, I heard a loud piston aircraft outside and commented "that sounds old..."

Running outside, I saw a silver/grey B-25 with invasion stripes painted on the wings passing overhead, heading northwest, possibly towards San Carlos airport or S.F. beyond that.. I THINK it was the same plane I saw at South County. Anyone else see/hear it?

I drove out to Hollister today around 10:30 and there was a crowd around the B-25. On my way back home around 1:30 the B-25 was on a tug and was being moved. Not sure what happened after that. Here are some pictures from Hollister from today. Please remember I'm not a photo man. http://www.facebook.com/album.php?ai...0&id=526605869

Facebook won't let me see the album. It just sends me to a sign-up page. Any way to view 'em without being forced to join them?

AirDOGGe, I posted some pictures and then tried to post Some More but it said that I had too many pictures stored. So I deleted them and posted some more. I didn't know that they would be deleted from the post also. I will re-post the other pictures again later.

That ship is green and not likely flyable as it's being prepped for tear-down and restoration. The one they are describing sounds like the same one Lance saw flying low over Santa Clara Friday afternoon.

For those of you who don't already know, the B-25 was Photo Fanny from PoF. Johnny Maloney and John Hinton were flying Paul Bowen for a photo shoot for Global Express. They based out of SJC for 4 days.
