It's a fully restored B-17 and the video (shot about 1 week ago) shows
the engines starting, takeoff, flying and the landing. It's 56 meg and
almost 14 minutes long. Pretty cool video.

The B-17 is house at a museum at Meacham Field (KTFW) in Ft. Worth. Their
webpage is http://www.vintageflyingmuseum.org



Fun video. I wish the filmaker could have gotten up to the top turret.

Meacham Field (KTFW) is where that Airport Hotel is for sale. I was
looking for it in the video.

If you look SW at the intersection on Ross Ave and Falcon Way, that is where
the B-17 is hangered at the museum.
