Description

Greetings Folks, This is for Greywolf44, he knows why, memories are special thing and B-17's mean something to him.. Sally B flew a very lively display at Legends this year, as you can see by this angle, two engines running smoke not one.. (As a tribute to those that never returned.. All the names are on the walls of The American Air Museum at Duxford.. Its a surprising amount..) This is the only B-17 flying outside the U.S. and the museum here also holds the only B-52, B-29 and Lockheed Blackbird outside the U.S. (Among others.) Next post is something never seen before..... Kept big for screen use! Enjoy Rob

Thanks, Rob! Great view of the old girl and I'll see if I can get those photos posted as well as some more 3D aircraft with female companions (LOL).

When I saw the thumbnail and the smoke from 2 engines I though "Oh, no!". Then I read your text about tribute to the fallen. That brought back what I've heard about this a LONG time ago. Also. rare to see a bomber head on like this. Good photo. Keep up the good work! :-)

May Day, May Day!!! We took some flak in the port engines, so have some fire equipment down there when we try for a landing! Terrific drama in this great capture of the B-17, mate, as it barrels in after a bombing run over Essen. Sterling contrast and cloud cover.
