There's a bit more coverage of the recovery and rebuild in earlier videos as well:

This should be making it way to the Flying Heritage Collection some time early next year.

Is that an elliptical wing? It looks a bit Spitfire-ish to me.

It was the A-10 of WWII.
More important than bread to the GPW, according to Stalin.
Love that landing!
