Wow, I can’t imagine the awesome... lookup up and seeing that profile climb away from you. Let alone getting a ride in one.

I rode in that B-17 about 15 years ago. $250 (as I recall) Louder than hell dogs! Never forget it.

A view from outside of another B-17 courtesy Jetman. I about wet myself at 1:52 (:09 ain't bad either).

My father was a tech sargeant on the B17 s. I always want to see one.
I was looking for work in Casper Wyoming when I looked up to see one flying out of there.
Shiny and beautiful
