It's great that some some good souls keep some of those old planes flying.

I recall seeing a few, don't recall specific models, at the Sussex County (NJ) Airport air show many years ago. What really caught my attention was a pilot opening a side window & hanging his head out to watch while starting one of the engines. It brought home, to me anyway, how basic those machines were in some regards.

The GoPro footage is better quality but you get the gist... (Play it loud.)
