On Monday the bombers moved to Sebring, FL for a visit through Wednesday. The airport was originally Hendricks Field in WWII and was a USAAF training base for B-17 crews. For more information on the history of Sebring Airport, visit this link to their website. The B-25 set down first in Sebring on Monday and the B-17 followed an hour later after completing some rescheduled flights in Boca Raton from the poor weather over the weekend. Local organizer and assistant airport manager Peggy Whiteleather helped out quite a bit and has for many years now... thanks Peggy!
Here are some shots of our F4U-5NL Corsair that followed the B-17 & B-25 in Fort Lauderdale and Boca Raton. The F4U will also be seen at the Melbourne, FL location this coming weekend as the Florida Tour closes for 2005. All photos below are courtesy of Jim Harley.
