Thank you RED BULL for keeping these war birds and historic aircraft airworthy! THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU! Far too many of the WWII birds are going to museums as they are considered no longer air worthy, usually due to the deteriorating aircraft and aircraft parts......or lack thereof. Obviously many of these planes were built 75 to 80+ years ago. There are no longer spare parts for these planes as the spare parts dried up MANY years ago! A few companies make some replacement aftermarket parts, but for the most part, almost every replacement part needs to be remanufactured which can be very cost prohibitive. The more recent invention of 3D printing, now even able to create METAL objects through specialized machines that can duplicate almost anything in existence to exacting specifications, probably much more exact than the parts were made back in the 1930's and 40's. In fact, most people who own warbirds can't repair them anymore due to the extreme costs, so many are either sold as parts or "fixer uppers" but no one has the vast amount of money needed to correctly fix these planes, or they are sold off to be converted into "static" museum displays which is a shame. These birds are best viewed in air demonstration shows where you can see, hear, and smell them in flight, just as the young children in Europe saw these birds flying overhead during WWII, all across Europe and in the Pacific Theater where they were a common site in the sky's all over the indo-pacific theater of war where the P-38 finally gained the respect it deserved. The B-25 was a "sleeper" of sorts. The B-25 Mitchell (named after the famous General Billy Mitchell, who fought the bureaucracy and in his mind "incompetent leadership" who didn't understand the true importance of aircraft as it related to using the new technology during war). The B-25 in the latter part of WWII had been modified in many different configurations and uses, but one model was fitted 18 separate machine guns positioned strategically all over the fuselage of the aircraft (both internal mounted, and externally mounted in pods or additional rotating nacelles. The Pilot could flip a switch and take control of all 18 guns at one time. The guns hydraulically turned in unison to the forward firing position to allow the pilot to unleash a literally HELL STORM of automatic machine gun and cannon fire unlike any other war bird in the entire war on both sides. While not docile by any means, the B-25 was no slouch either. It was an excellent dive bomber, especially using the 18-gun ship, which was one of the most devastating strafing aircraft of all time. Red Bull's flying demonstration team "The Flying Bulls" have some of the best preserved, rebuilt, and restored aircraft of any team in the world today. I'm glad to see that the CEO or owner of Red Bull, allows so much of the company profits to be diverted and dedicated to the preservation of these incredible machines. And the fact that they keep them all in pristine flying condition is incredible. Also the fact they are one of the only teams in the world allow to fly acrobatics in Helicopters tells you the level of competency and professionalism this team truly has. They employ some of the best pilots and maintainers (mechanics/cleaners/technicians/engineers/etc.) in the entire world. These are some very lucky pilots and maintainers to be able to both fly and work on these incredible planes every single day. I would do it for free! Especially for a chance, just one chance, to fly that P-38, my favorite airplane of all time. I am lucky to live in Colorado Springs, CO where they have another airworthy example and they fly it from time to time at air shows or maintenance flights during the year. I live right by the airport so I see war birds around Colorado Springs quite often. In fact, this weekend is a show here in The Springs that is featuring the P-38 in flight in addition to several other warbirds including the B-25 Mitchell Bomber. We are lucky to have the National Museum of WWII Aviation here and they are similar to the Red Bull's Team. They have some really experienced pilots (many ex-military test pilots) who fly their planes. I hope and pray that Red Bull will continue to preserve these historic aircraft far into the future and allow the next generations to see these beautiful birds in flight as they were originally designed. Thank you again RED BULL and thank you also to the Red Bull flying demonstration team and maintainers! Your work is very much appreciated by many aviation enthusiats out here in the world.

Boeing 737 pilot umut ulusoy Haha!! That was 7 years ago! Maybe now they aren't as responsive.. 😅 anyway at the time if I remember well, it was something like 10000 flight hours + special qualification on an "interesting" aircraft!

My advice - don't start with something like flying bulls. I'm only a teenager and I've been working on a fully functional airfield as a volunteer. You should get in contact with a nearby airfield, try work cleaning aeroplanes etc. Keep doing that and you'll meet people, make contacts, maybe even go flying. It is definitely the way to go forward.
