This flying boat became one of the legends of WWII, patrolling vast oceans and earning the nickname “Flying Porcupine” for its heavy defensive firepower.

OK Gang, here is a GREAT video we did back in 2004! It is of an AVG “Flying Tiger” Reunion we hosted at Fantasy of Flight, where I got to take up five of the ORIGINAL AVG pilots in the only ORIGINAL WWII-built TP-40 on the Planet!

31K views · 1.1K reactions | From the video vault... You Are There! Come fly another Grumman airplane with me today. This time its the Duck. Part one is pre-flight inspection and a cockpit tour. Part two we start her up... take a deep breath, cause there's going to be some smoke. Part three, we take off. We'll do some flying and maybe even take her down on the nearby lake. Pretty cool. - Kermit Weeks | Kermit Weeks | Facebook
