Saw the Sentimental Journey Today...

[Lt. Heinz Becker]

Lucky enough to see this old B-17G up close today. Really cool airplane. Got to take a tour of the inside. The sim doens't give justice how cramped the inside of these things are. Really cool when she started up and took some lucky guy who payed $600 for a ride. She leaks a little oil though...got dripped on. Anyone in Wheeling, WV go to the Ohio County Airport early tomorrow cause she leaves for Morgantown the same day. Anyone in WV its worth the trip to see her.

The recent gathering of B-25s here in Dayton for the Doolittle Raid Anniversary left me with the same feeling of "wow, these seem big on the outside, but are really tiny on the inside".

[MajorMagee]

Yes, that's my work. I quite like it too...
