Volunteers keep historic bomber flying
Dave Shiffer (left), Champaign Aviation Museum executive director and head of flight operations, and volunteer Matt Davis help cycle a prop on the World War II B-25 bomber Champaign Gal while preparing to start the engine July 15, 2022, outside the museum at Grimes Field in Urbana, Ohio. Each engine holds more than 45 gallons of oil, and some of it pools in the lower pistons when not in use. Cycling propellers distributes the oil, which prevents engine damage.
