  • woah, B-25 were tight in space

    just a few questions:

    what is the job for the guy behind the pilots?

    what happened to the bombsight?

    who's job was to release the bombs?

  • Most WWII bombers were actually pretty tight.

    The person behind the pilots in the B-25 was the flight engineer / top turret gunner.

    The bombsight? Well, it's not always carried in restored aircraft.

    The bombardier's job was to drop the bombs...

  • @doolittleraid No flight engineer on a b 25 or b17

  • @farmer6987 Sorry, but those were the official positions the Army Air Force gave those members. The top turret gunner in the B-25s on the Raid was also usually a designated flight engineer.

  • @doolittleraid ok that may have been my point is they have no flight engineer panel as say the b-29.

  • @farmer6987 Those items in the video were the official titles of the men...

  • nice job with the filter =D

  • There was also a B-25 on the Austrian Red Bull Air Power this year = D

  • I loved the crawling across bombay door part. Soooo cool and unsuual!

  • I was at this reunion too. It was amazing to be able to meet the Raiders. I am reading the book "Four Came Home", and DeShazer's story is amazing.  Thanks for posting.
