The wife took the twins to Philly this weekend as a graduation present. I got to ride all weekend! Have over 1,000 miles, so far, this month.

As I was taking pictures at the gliderport, I heard the drone of piston engines over my head. When I looked up I was amazed to find this B17 passing by. The B17 first flew July 28, 1935 and entered combat in World War II in 1941. It had a top speed of 287 mph and was powered by four 1200 hp Wright-Cyclone engines.
