Ever since getting interested in planes around the age of 9 or 10, the B-17 has been up there as one of my favorites. I too got go inside one (not sure which one it was at the moment) at one of the Nellis air shows. Love the photos - keep 'em comin'!!

It certainly was a lovely sight Paul. Lucky you to get to sit inside and see her all those years ago. I believe there's only 10 still flying now including the Sally B, but it's good to know they're planning for future generations with the Pink Lady.SCOOPhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17481423869059986451noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2156181044707591026.post-60637190805429375732015-08-17T06:55:32.366+01:002015-08-17T06:55:32.366+01:00I'm so glad to see Sally B still flies! I'...I'm so glad to see Sally B still flies! I've been inside that Fortress (almost 25 years ago now), sat in every seat, and seen her fly in formation with Pink Lady from France (the latter now grounded but kept in repair to have a B-17 flying in 2045!). <br />Always a majestic sight, and I'm glad you got to see her Mike, and take some beautiful pictures.<br /><br />Cheers! -- PaulAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
