Very nice. Now just imagine sixteen of these taking off from the flight desk of the USS Hornet, April 1942, on their way to bomb Tokyo. The leader and commander of the group was Col. Jimmy Doolittle. Just a little payback for Pearl Harbor. Halsey commanded the Hornet. And, a great morale boost for America! I met Doolittle's co-pilot at a Houston gun show some decades ago. He was fascinating, and a true American hero. I also met Col. Paul Tibbetts, of Enola Gay fame.
