Old Plane in Town
Re: Old Plane in Town
Not sure. The B-17 belongs to the EAA (Experimental Aircraft Association) and there was an EAA support van parked nearby with posters advertising rides, but I didn't see or hear anything from the local news outlets about this. The plane is supposedly due back Jun 1st for an airshow.
If you look closely at the tail gun position you can see a mannequin decked out as a tail gunner. Now isn't that a coincidence.

that plane travels around giving rides as a fund raiser. Got my ride at Mt Comfort here in Indy a few years back...best "C" note I have spent in awhile.....I was a waste gunner for a short while, then moved to navigator/ bombadier...what a great plane...those young men were heros, each and everyone of them...absolutely no protection for them...
