Funny.. just looking at it... you can see the future 747 silhouette. I have two uncles buried in Avon France, having fought the great fight in B-24's.

We usually get a B-17 (and maybe another warbird along with it if we're lucky) every year around this time. Last year it was Aluminum Overcast that paid us a visit.

At least you got a chance to fly in one. I've still yet to go up in one of these warbirds.
