    Thanks for posting. I remember watching this video years ago, my grandfather is interviewed at 4:23 in this. He worked on the aircraft in the 40s and headed up the restoration in the 80s. He retired in 1986 after 45 years with the company. He worked on every aircraft from the N3PB to the F-20. Many of the kids I grew up with had grandfathers who fought in WWII, me an my siblings were proud of our grandfather's contributions on the home-front.

    My dad produced this video back in the late 70s-early 80s. He tells me he remembers your grandfather Darryl.
