Most beautiful plane in the world. IMHO

I wish that damn jet would shut up so we could hear the awesome twin beech!

we bought an unrestored beech at dfw in 1978 for $17,000, ran two loads of pot & sold it 3 days later for $17,500. it was worn out! the a 6" wide headliner just above the windscreen someone had written "certified to fly". then someon else wrote "only with nut in left seat". no avionics no radios, only an artificial horizon & a compass mounted on top of the dash that appeared to have come from a car. It was a thrill a minute. I am now a retired major in the marijuana air force.

My father flew the AT-11 (training bomber version) in WWII in San Angelo, Texas, USA. A bubble nose was added to train navigators how to use the Nordon Bomb sight. Thank you for posting this.  Very enjoyable.

Nice, first year I haven't been to Bruntingthorpe in about a decade thanks to University, and I miss seeing a flying Beech 18

Wow that was a looow pass

I actually got to fly in one of these, several times when I worked at the airport in Lakeland, FL. A very neat plane to fly in!

This was quite an impressive unexpected display, and yes that bit over the trees was rather low, hee hee! Good video.
