Aluminum Overcast is at Peoria airport today. I saw it yesterday and some of the vets that flew in B-17's showed up. One guy was a ball turret gunner. He was the smallest guy in the crew. He is also the only one still living from the crew. He will be 89 soon. http://i198.photobucket.com/albums/aa229...

Minot Airport, where the museum is located, is 160 feet higher than the river. Minot is located in a valley formed by the river. The airport is on the plains above the town. I spent 3 years stationed at Minot AFB from 1963 to 1966.
