Pictures of a B-17

Took these pictures of this B-17 at my local airfield a few months ago and thought that some of you would like to see them.

The name of the airport is blugrass, its just a small airport in Lexington, Ky. they have a small aviation museum and the B-17 was out there just on a one day thing. the guy that owend it said he just tours the country and stops in at museums and air shows. BTW they were giving half hour rides for $450, a little steep for me but I can only imagine what that would be like.

Thanks for the info Itsa,yes I heard about those flights,we have so much legislation here in the UK that vintage aircraft passengerflights are now getting rare,even the humble Dakota has been affected.
