An outstanding production that describes well our relationship with such aircraft, and in a parallel manner our relationship with our trucks, boats, ships, and yes even trains. They ARE historical "landmarks", monuments to those who employed them as weapons of war.

Keep 'em flyin'. Keep 'em rollin'. Keep 'em floatin'. and yes even Keep 'em clickity-clackin' down the tracks.

AMEN.

Kind of funny the comment that the aircraft now are "better taken care of than they ever were":

- But of course during wartime they're only hardware.

- Now, historically, they have become icons.

And how great that they're still being flown; it'd be too sad to just park them and never take them airborne.
