A friend and I stopped by the North Las Vegas Airport Coffee Shop for breakfast, where coincidentally, the patio dining area just happens to overlook the runway. ;)
I noticed an unusual sound outside, then noticed this out of the ordinary aircraft outside taxiing up to take on passengers.
I grabbed my lil ole G5 and took this. :cool:

The Captain and crew finally got their stuff together, now if we can only remember where we left it. :cool:

Fancy having your peaceful breakfast spoilt by that racket;) those people on the apron have a close up view of what I believe is a very popular aeroplane over there.

Lucky devils indeed , sadly they wont allow that here :( I believe another of your B17 bombers that does flights is the Liberty Belle and she is planning a flight to England this summer , she is to fly the original route taken during WW2 and at an airshow this summer she will fly in formation with "our" B17 "Sally B" and the European one " Pink Lady" :D
