Hi everyone,

The B-17G "Sentimental Journey" of the Commemorative Air Force Arizona Wing made a stop in Morgantown West Virginia and my Dad and I went to see her. Here are some of the pictures.

You are a very lucky person Mr. Mark, thank you for the photos

You had to take more photos from the interior


Cheers Nick

She touched down here in In. and I got to see and do a walk through. It's great to see and touch a piece of real history. And to think those guys flew these through all that flak, M.G.'s and cannon with only beer can aluminum to stand behind. Truely the greatest generation.
