Those of you who follow me on Twitter have noted that I’ve mentioned the appearance of a restored B-25 Mitchell bomber that has made near-daily appearances over our house. It will arrive, and do lazy circles for 30 minutes or so, then fly away (presumably to Everett.)
Photographing it has been tough, as it is almost always “backlit”, that is appearing below high overcast or thin clouds, and at moderate altitudes. Even with my longest lens. I have tried though, and here are a couple of the better shots: (heavily processed to bring detail out of shadows)
I think I may know one of the flight mechanics that works on that B-25 out of Everett. So do you.
Hi Dave!
I know that. I’ve chosen to leave that part of the story untold. 😉
I saw it a few days ago flying low over Lake Union in the middle of the day, surprised the heck out of me.
Hey Mr. Harmon, how’s life?
Fair enough. I’ll shut up now. I’ve been told it is possible to get a ride in that thing one of these days, so if you see a hand waiving out of one of the windows with one digit extended the next time it flies over your house, you’ll know. 🙂
I’ll keep a look out then! 😉
BTW, we should hit an Aqua-Sox game this summer!
Guys…you can’t tease us with:
“I think I may know one of the flight mechanics that works on that B-25 out of Everett. So do you.”
Followed by this…
“I know that. I’ve chosen to leave that part of the story untold.”
Enquiring minds want the *poop*!
