B-25 Emergency Landing at Oshkosh 8/02/2009

This is a naval B-25; a PBJ-1J at Oshkosh. I shot this today, the last day of the show. It seemed like a normal landing but we later learned(after fire crews were scrambled)that it had taken off from the other runway but declared an emergency due to a fuel leak. This may be the ONLY video of this, but it is com the first one to be put here on Youtube.

Reminds me of the story when my dad was over Kansas in a blizzard in one of his two Cessna 421s, and he lost engine one... He said it was his worst landing yet, and would NEVER try that again. Lol

Thank you for catching this and posting the video. On subsequent inspections it was determined the left engine needs replacing. More info on devil dog squadron website

No problem. Thought something was odd when the runway was cleared...
