Today I did a thing and flew in a real B-17. Bottom picture is the D&L trail south of White Haven, looking south. The plane flew over Albrightsville so I waved to JFDan. Also saw Blue Mountain the True Mountain in the distance. Pretty sick bird, 10/10.
Thanks, It was pretty loud... hard to hear what other people were saying. The coolest part was sticking my head out the roof at 135 mph and 2,500 feet altitude. I've never done that before on a plane and don't think I'll ever get the opportunity again. Very sick.
The WW2 planes come to Hazleton every year in August. I went to see them probably a decade or more ago, but never actually flew in one. Today I debated spending the money to fly and decided to YOLO it.
