Awesome! I volunteer at Oshkosh each summer and generally go to a few museums each year. Have yet to visit CWH. What I really wanna see is their Lancaster fly.
The use of an oxygen mask has a very simple reason: it's a precaution to avoid carbon monoxide poisoning from the engine. Note how close the exaust stubs are from the cockpit. In some WW2 fighters like the Hawker Typhoons the use of oxygen masks was mandatory even on the ground.

It's awesome how the propeller is so efficient that it is barely spinning and the plane was taxiing at a pretty good speed. Modern propellers can't do this. World war two was truly the pinnacle of propeller design. That's why we use jets now.
@HiWetcam sometimes the video capture frame rate and the rotational speed of the propeller combine to make the capcaptured images of the propeller show the propeller appear to stand still, move backwards, or at a different speed than it actually was when played back.😉
