I got back in today [img]smile.gif[/img]

Yes Fried that's the B-17 I flew in. They had four of them lined up wing tip to wing tip on the tarmac and they flew all four of them yesterday at the same time. They also had a B-24 lined up on the tarmac as well.

Luckily no Fokker's whew!! [img]tongue.gif[/img]

Martin will be so jealous because not only did I get to see the Lancaster fly (right over my head ) but I got to go inside of it for free. They don't charge just request a donation if it can be afforded.

I saw Chuck Yeager and I had Gunther Rall sign his book for me [img]smile.gif[/img] .

Alot of vets there sadly though they did not have the Me-109, Spitfire or Hurricane fly in for some reason.

I took the pictures for developing so I should get them back later this week. There are three cameras with 81 total pictures that include the air show and my flight in the 909.
