Dave gets taken for a ride

In this episode, we find our hero's sidekick Dave about to take the ride of his dreams - on a B17! He received the gift of flight last year and finally made arrangements to fly today around noon. Due to a broken exhaust stud and the resultant repairs, actual take-off was closer to 3 p.m. Dave didn't care, he couldn't stop grinning. I think he was still trying to fly on the drive home.

I'm sure you'll find more info and pics on Dave and Paige's blog: http://weenerbagotails.blogspot.com/

Did you watch the videos on Dave's blog? Too bad I didn't know how to use my camera.

Amazing plane. I was inside one about ten years ago but did not shell out the $ for a ride. Bob
