Black Jack veteran takes flight on EAA B-17.

Post by TAdan »

Aluminum Overcast is in town this weekend and I spotted this article this morning.

I'll be going to the airport later today to check it out.

Edit... And here are some pictures of Aluminum Overcast from this afternoon. :D They had a pretty nice crowd there to see her and there were several veterans visiting it too.

That is a great story! Fine photos also, thanks for sharing them with us. One of the best things about when the Collings Foundation comes around my area every year is getting a chance to talk to the Vets who show up. It is always a treat to hear their stories. So God Bless George, and may he have many more flights on his beloved bombers!
