Red Bull DC-6 airborne at last!

After probably the most extensive restoration/rebuild of a DC-6 ever the Red Bull DC-6 flew for the first time this week. Reportedly the first test flight went like clockwork with no defects to report. Congratulations to everyone involved and I for one look forward to seeing it soon.
