That's great, Gary! Which B-17 was this? Where were you for these sights? Did you have to make special arrangements to take sights? I would imagine so...
Back in 2019 I was about to pull the trigger to buy a brief tourist flight on a B-17. That aircraft crashed and was destroyed, killing five passengers and the two pilots.
