I had a truly once in a lifetime experience of flying on a restored WWII era B-17 called Nine-O-Nine during the summer. It was something I will never forget.
The B-17 parked at the airport.
The belly-gunner position
We sat on these cushions during landing and takeoff.
During the flight the upper hatch over the radio room was open. I was able to take this picture.
The pilots and flight controls
Looking out over the wing during our flight.
Me at the waist gunner's position during the flight.
Dad and I
In the Radio Room during the flight
Before we landed I took this picture of the shadow of the plane.
