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....

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.
