G-BEDF / 124485/DF-A (cn 8693) Good to see 'Sally B' back in the air again. She's hit though and waiting for the fighters to see off the attackers. |

G-BEDF / 124485/DF-A (cn 8693) After 18 months of engine troubles and numerous changes, during which the UK's only airworthy B-17 has hardly flown, she's back where she belongs. Just 24 hours after a test flight following the latest engine change, 'Sally B' displays at the former 8th Air Force B-17 base at Rougham. |

G-BEDF (cn 8693) A grey British summer's day and the sad sight of a grounded Sally B with a missing No. 1 engine and propellor. Despite it being newly overhauled, the engine suffered a crankshaft bearing failure. To date this has prevented the aircraft participating in the 2009 airshow season. Let us hope they manage to overcome these problems soon and we can enjoy her back in the air. |
