The B-17 in the airshow crash tragedy wasn't the one my father was on in the Confederate Air Force in the year 1985 in a local television spot . Dad was on Sentimental Journey . The one in the crash was called Texas Raiders.

Tragic in so many ways.

Yes another iconic aircraft along with it's crew lost. It was just a little over three years ago we lost another B-17 Nine-O-Nine with seven lives lost. Sad.

I had a ride on her back in 2017, what a joy.
I'll miss the beautiful piece of history, and my heart goes out to the families & friends of the crewmembers.
