Still flying....

This B-24 Liberator that belongs to the Collings Foundation is still flying after all these years. This photo was taken about 15yrs ago when it still had the nose art "The Devil and his Tail" it has since been repainted and renamed as "Witchcraft". I shot the photo while flying alongside in the B-17 "NINE-O-NINE" owned by the same group. We got to fly from Oklahoma City to Amarillo to do a news story when I still worked in the media. An experience to tell the grandkids about for sure. Sorry about the quality of photos...they were shot with a 2.5mp camera a LOOOONG time ago...
 
I would love to fly in one of those old bombers, maybe one of these days at one of the local sponsored air shows. Thanks for sharing! Kelley (Texas) :)
 
Two cracking aircraft.......long may they keep flying to help us remember the courage of the air crews that fought in these bombers over europe.I can't get my head around the fact that the U S bomber crews used to carry out daylight raids over Germany......especially in the earlier years of the war with little or no fighter escort.This needed bravery of the highest order.........bravery I have difficulty comprehending.Brilliant aircraft crewed by brilliant people......thanks for posting them.
