Thanks for that.
Yankee Lady is one of the best B-17’s out there. My son and I were there when the Yankee Air Force received her. They really did an outstanding restoration.
Cheers
When I was flying out of Willow Run, I got to take off and land behind Yankee Lady(and Yankee Warrior B-25) many times. We kept our planes in the same hanger bldg., 2 doors down(the one that’s part way open in the video) I really miss hearing them, almost on a daily basis!
“Texas Raiders” and “Sentimental Journey” are still prettier… 'Course I’m biased with Confederate Air Force birds (note signature)… (I HATE the name-change we were forced to do… “Commemorative Air Force” just don’t have the same piz-zazz… Fricking PC police anyway…[:(!])
Last I knew, “Sentimental Journey” was the only Fort with an operating Ball Turret, BTW… I was going to try it out, but found that at 6’2" tall I wasn’t gonna fit in it, no way, no how…
