Flying In The B-17

via KYYK 98.3

I Got a chance to fly in this historical B-17 also known as "The Flying Fortress" and this was a thrill & adventure of a lifetime.I could feel & hear the roaring hum of the four 1200 Horse Power engines
from takeoff to landing,and the memory of flying in the B-17 will stay with me the rest of my life.Also flying in this historical B-17,I could'nt help but to take a moment to reflect upon the veterans and our fallen heroes of World War Two,so to them and the families of our fallen heroes I say thanks for your service and sacrafice for our country.If you can afford to take a flight in this Historical B-17 which is tax deductible do it,it will be a memory of a lifetime!
Thanks,Craig
