Sentimental Journey - B17G Flying Fortress
One of the perks of living so close to a former Air Force base is that lots of interesting former and current military aircraft make use of the landing strip for various purposes. Today, I watched Sentimental Journey, a B-17G Flying Fortress pass over my house at different times during the day. Just after 5 PM, I headed over to the airport to watch her make multiple touch-and-go passes before she headed back to her home port at Falcon Field. What a beauty she is.
