Sentimental Journey B-17 Flying Fortress

Thank you Kim. I appreciate your comment and vote.

Will do. I see you are from the great state of Tennessee. I was born in Memphis at Millington Naval Air Station. Dad was career Navy and worked on aircraft. I think this is why I LOVE old airplanes. I have always lived near one base or another and when ever I hear that special sound of an old aircraft engine...I am out the door in a flash to see it. I live in Palm Springs within site of the airport and the Palm Springs Air Museum so I can stand out in my back yard and watch these great old timers fly over head. I was fortunate enough to get a flight on the Sentimental Journey and was allowed to ride in the cockpit with the three old timers flying her. The space was so small I stood behind the co pilot and watched as the third guy tweaked the equipment. My main seat was by the radio equipment. We flew out over the desert on a beautiful clear day. I will never forget that ride. She is an amazing bird from an amazing time in our history and the men who flew her to protect our country. Also thanks for the vote and your appreciation of my photo and treatment. I am going to spend some time looking at your site.

Just checked and I signed up for the group Guns Are A Unique Art Form group and placed this photo and two others, the 50 caliber as one of them in September.
