Scott, How about updates for the B-17 registry? A couple of B-17's have changed hands in the past year.

I love the bomber camp shots but I gotta say that Bills photo is beautiful and would be perfect for a B-17 registry

Wow, some great shots there. Is it okay if I steal them for the individual entries?

as for the header. I'll make up some headers from my favorite three choices and then I'll put it up for a vote.
