B-17 sighting
There I am quietly minding my own business at our outdoor graduation this morning, keeping track of who gets more thanks, God or the faculty, when I espy a plane flying low in the distance towards us. I'd read in the paper this morning that a B-17 was in town, giving rides at $400 a pop. Tail is large and it definitely has radial engines. Sure enough, it flies right at use at a very low altitude, roaring away to the south. About a half hour later, it returns, flying a little higher. Very cool. I can't imagine a squadron of those things taking off over a town.
By the way, the faculty won, 30 to 9.
