[Milsurplus] [MRCA] VC-121A Constellation "Bataan" Flies Again!

[Mark K3MSB]

"Bataan" is owned by Lewis Air Legends in Oshkosh WI where it will make its
home after restoration is completed by Fighter Rebuilders in Chino CA.

FYI There is a second Connie under restoration in Virginia, owned by
Dynamic Aviation.    It is due to fly in late 2024 or early 2025.

Both Connie's are slated to be on the airshow circuit.
