OMG..... You got to fly in a B-17G. That is awesome and to sit in the navigator/bombardiers compartment. What a view that must have been. Like I always say Chris, when I grow up I want to be just like you. :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:

Nice! I got to take dad for a ride in Collins' B-17 from Elmira to BGM, but we also had to hold for 45 minutes until BGM went VFR, which was a major bonus. He talked about it for years. I have a 17, a 24, and a 25 under my belt. Who's are these? Looks like that group that does the Berlin Airlift stuff.

Chris, you lucky SOB! However, I can top that. Have you been in the last operational B-29? I was. it is owned by EAA and during the Festival, they take people up in it for flights. It was AWESOME!!!!!
