B-17 over Austin TX 10/13?

Mon Oct 13, 2008 1:56 pm

Just reading about the TR situation when I heard the unmistakable sound of radials coming towards my house. Made it outside just in time to see a B-17 fly over, but couldn't make out any markings. Anyone know who might be in the area? They made a couple of turns leading me to believe it was a tour stop not a fly through the area....

Liberty Belle perhaps, supposed to be doing tours out of Bergstom 18-19th

Yes, that was me. Liberty Belle is ramped over at Signature.

The aircraft rental place I use is at Signature. I was planning a local flight on Friday, so I'll make sure to stop by and take a look.
