Looks cool, snap some pics of the B-17

We had one fly over our field a few weekends back, you don't see them flying too often these days.

Mine is inbound via the brown truck, should be here in a week or so... I talked to Herve last evening and decided to pick up a fiberglass spinner and paint it to match the blue on the cowl. Looking forward to diving into this one.

No diving needed. Its just a nice wade in the shallow end to get this thing flying.

Here a couple of shots from the other day flying in the rain.

Yes, it will hover with a 100cc, a DA50 at full throttle might even hang that thing.

Here is what flying in the rain looks like.

airborneSGT · 09-04-2009, 11:46 AM

Ken that's hardcore! Even when I was a FL flyer I didn't mess with the rain.

Hahaha! Nice!

Welcome to Washington. If you didn't do things in the rain you'd stay home every day.

(note: this summer has been great though with hardly any rain)

If you only wait for ideal flying conditions in Western Washington you'd only be able to fly for about one month a year!

Heck, I usually fly more in the winter because I have more free time. Highs in the mid 40's and dodging rain showers, that's flying Washington style.

JohnVH · 09-04-2009, 01:14 PM

Here is how you fly in the winter!

Here you go Chris B-17 pics. The last picture has Veteran Combat Crews from WWII. They were getting a free ride in the B-17 today. Not many of them left.

Decided to go show off my PAU Extra instead of the P-47. Pics from that tomorrow.

JohnVH · 09-04-2009, 05:01 PM

Free B17 rides? They were charging $350+ for a ride in one up here...
