20 seconds,..... but that sound, gets me "fired" up!

When I lived in Ca. I worked near Hayward airport for a while and often saw P-51's flying in the area. In 2000 !
There was also a guy who had a P 51 B in 1/2 scale that he had built himself, that crashed near Sacramento though.
In 1999 at Moffett Field (Wings over America Show) I saw the only flying Gee Bee racer versus a dragster, the 300 mph Gee Bee won easily 
Here in NH, at North Hampton Airport there is a guy who flies a replica Fokker Triplane, and every year a group of WWII bombers comes around, possibly the same that Rojowe mentioned, B 25, B17, and B24 AWESOME !

If you like WWI planes, watch the movie "Flyboys".  Also a really cool "gunfight" at the end.

The Great Waldo Pepper with Robert Redford. Yes he's a liberal commie turd but he made some really good movies .

If you're ever in Oregon, 35 miles southwest of the People's Republic of Portland is the Evergreen Aviation Air and Space Museums (McMinnville, Oregon).
