If you love that, you would have loved living where I lived fifteen years ago.

The local air museum had a B17 they used to give tour rides on to cover costs. I lived right in it's flight pattern when they'd give three daily flight tours of the Finger Lakes.

Nothing like the sound of that flying over.

I live a 1 1/2 miles from the local airport (Livermore CA) and every Memorial Day we get the B-17, B-24, B-25 and a couple of 51's in for the weekend. And you're right, it's quite a sight. Depending on the final they come right over the house at 500 feet.
