B-17 Bomber Inn

These have probably been posted before but what the heck. We were delivering helicopters to Portland, OR and we heard about this B-17 atop a gas station. When the work was done it was playtime. Feb.1987.

She still with us, but the nose has been removed for restoration and the rest is still sitting on the poles. I think the project has been stalled for a few years due to money.
