They might be heading to the air show at Olympia airport. Last year they had a B-25 and a B-24. They also have a bunch of WW2 fighters, choppers and stunt air craft.

Love that sound! I have been inside the Sentimental Journey when I was a kid. I think it would be fun to volunteer on maintaining an aircraft like that. Mayben when I retire I will!

These folks fly a lot. I work just across the speedway, and they shake us up often. Pretty cool when they do.

I saw it too. Beautiful plane.
I was at the Flying Heritage Collection fly day on Saturday. P 47, P51, and FW 190 were flying. They are astonishing to see in flight. Also saw a B-25 take off and the B-24 fly in. |
