Hi ST, good to see you.

Back when I was living in Texas, I went to a place that had old aircraft. I forget were it was, but it was fantastic.They had B 17's there and I got to get inside of one.

It was not that easy. I had to stand almost under it, it felt like it anyway, and lift myself up into it. It was wild and I loved being able to be in a plane like that with so much history.

Thanks again for sharing about your Dad and the B 17's.

the way you got IN was the way you had to get OUT, if you were FORCED to bail out, after being shot down. UN-FUN!
