Ninety years to the day of the first flight of the B-17, one of the last surviving Flying Fortress bombers roared into Boeing Field, where it all began.

I imagined loud! But still would have been an awesome flight in each of those!
I always wanted to fly in the F-16 Fighters if I had gone into the military. I never did go in though! My eyesight was not good, I wouldn't have qualified back then. I also wanted to fly a chinook helicopter as well! Maybe one day I will get a chance to ride in one at least!
