Hedge Hopping heads East and West all at the same time as Matt is joined by the Pima Air and Space Museum's very own Scott Marchand to discuss the incredible story of the Ilyushin IL-2 Shturmovik, the Flying Tank of the Eastern Front, and we delve into the tale of how IL-2M 5612 went from a frozen outside St Petersburg and ended up in Tuscon, Arizona.
