"A P-47 flown by Lt. Richard Sulzbach of the 364th Fighter Squadron, 350th Fighter Group, 12th Air Force on April 1,1945. Lt. Sulzbach had a little run-in with some trees while on a strafing run over Italy. He was able to fly the plane 120 miles back to base and land safely. It's a real testament to how tough the P-47 was."

The Canberra shot reminds me of when I was a young air cadet and had a ride on the jump seat of a Canberra on a low level photo-recon flight down the Rhine Valley. I had to look up to see the tops of the river banks. The Rhine twists and turns a lot - only time in my life I have been airsick :(

These really are awesome! The stories about the Jugs flying 120 miles with that kind of damage is seriously impressive, but so is the story about the pilot that stole the b25!

Oh, really ...
It actually just bellied in on return then was raised, had the gear lowered and was towed to a parking spot.
