I believe that was in 1990 at Geneseo... I was a mere pup at the age of 12 in those days and the sight of that formation was amazing. Little did I know the significance of such a formation and how I probably would never see it again.

Something close may be seen at the Yankee Air Force show this year... we (Collings Foundation) have confirmed to be there with the B-17 and B-24 and I know that Mike Luther has several other B-17s confirmed too. I hear that the Lancaster from CWH will be there as well. This may be the last great gathering of the heavy bombers.
