Hi Guys,

I stuck my head outside to talk to my neighbor while she was making dinner and at approximately 6:00 pm I here the sound of round engines turning, and low and behold there she was big as life and flew right over the house.

Anyone have any info as to B-17 movement near KBDL area today ? I am curious as to which one this is that overflew me.

Regards,

Paul

Most likely the Collings Foundation B-17.

That was me in the 25...nuts...I was going to take some pictures tonight but left the camera in the 17. We go to Pittsfield tomorrow. Smooth as glass this evening. Did a tour of the 29 over at NEAM...I'll post pics of that later.
