From my first visit to the National WWII Museum, a very nice collection of aircraft that I hadn’t expected. Here is an uncommon view of the iconic Flying Fortress. In 1942, during a ferry flight, this B-17 “My Gal Sal” made a forced landing on the Greenland ice pack where it remained until recovery in 1995. The F4U Corsair adds a nice accent although it’s unlikely that the two types ever flew into combat together. Nikon D500 w/18-200mm.
