I took it as a sign of fate when I stumbled upon the news report announcing that the B-17 used in the movie “Memphis Belle” would be flying into and staying for a few days at the municipal airport literally just up the street from my home. I couldn’t believe it, I was not going to miss this!
As we drove up to the airport we noticed that the Memphis Belle was circling the airfield prior to landing so we stopped right under the approach at the end of the airfield fence and I caught a few shots of her landing.
