    A B-25 Legend

    Rob and Scott sit down with famed "B-25 King" Carl Scholl and his daughter Christine Scholl and talk about Carl's origins of how he became the worlds leader in owning B-25 parts, some of the amazing stories he's had along the way along with his partner at Aero Trader Tony Ritzman.  Christina talks about what it was like growing up in the Mecca of warbirds at Chino, the beginnings of her story in aviation and where does she go from here. We apologize for the audio as we had a microphone failure and didn't know it till it was too late.  Our producer Scott did everything he could to make it as palatable as possible and I felt the interview was too good to scrap.   #b25mitchell #chinowarbirds #nationalmuseumofwwiiaviation  #restoration  #warbirds  ‪@aerotrader ‪@nationalwwiiaviation‬ #fatherdaughter  If you would like to support the museum and "Keep 'em flying!" please consider donating to The National Museum of WWII Aviation in Colorado Springs CO.
