The Experimental Aviation Association is sponsoring the nationwide tour of "Fuddy Duddy", a B-17G from the WWII Pacific theater. Took a flight today from Hayward up to Treasure Island and back - what a trip! It may be coming to an airport near you - check out: http://www.b17.org.

I love Cali. I was at the junk yard last week. It is by Brown field municipal air field by the boarder. I heard something and looked up to see a B17 flying low in formation with a Dauntless dive bomber, a hellcat, and one that I didn't recognize right away but kinda looked like another hell cat in British trim. How freaking luck am I (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/smilie_pokal.gif)
I love vintage aircraft. I think in another life I was a WWII pilot. |
