This is the place where the majority of the warbird (aircraft that have survived military service) discussions will take place. Specialized forums may be added in the new future

Owen Williams and his California-Atlantic Airways had much involvement in surplus B-17s and other types in the time period from 1949 to 1954. He and his company owned or operated seven B-17s in those years, as well as a number of other types such as a B-24 and P-38. Little information has been available about Williams or California-Atlantic, but I have now been in contact with his son, Patrick, and have added a post to my aerovintage website that contains the interesting biography of Owen Williams. I plan to do more posting with this new information on each of the B-17s he was involved with in through his varied flying career.
