Sally-B
The Sally-B or the Boeing B 17 Flying Fortress. This is a shot I took quite some time ago, but as it's a bit quiet at the moment I thought I would post this pic up.

Hopefully they will get plenty more flying hours out of SallyB, she is always a nice sight to see at the airshows. Nice shot Ken

Thanks for comments, I have a soft spot for old aircraft as I used to have quite a few Airfix models as a kid

Sadly though Ken as the years pass, maintaining aircraft like Sally B and The Vulcan for example become more expensive, i fear their flying hours will become more and more limited......
Cakey.....Did you go to Shuttleworth on one of their many airshows days?? Most of the time only aircraft in the shuttleworth collection are in the shows, i think early on in the year they do show bigger aircraft in one of their shows, usually about June i think. I hope you enjoyed your visit there .......Never done Duxford. Enjoy
