HAPPY (BELATED) BIDET, TODD!!
Dang, that *IS* a great birthday gift. My former roommate was a B-17 freak, he'd go ape doody over a ride in a Flying Fortress.
My father-in-law (God rest him), was a belly gunner in a B-29 Superfortress. He had some heavy-duty combat stories. Especially the one where he was stuck in the turret when returning from a mission and the landing gear wouldn't come down. He managed to get out just before the turret was sheared off on landing.
Anyhoo, I'm
envyous to say the least.
