I walked outside yesterday aftrrnoon at work, and was surprised to see a B-17 sitting on the ramp, I don't know where it came from or who owns it, I could not get any closer to look for tail number since it was parked in a restricted area. But there are only about 10 airworthy B-17's in the US.

Just found out Big D just painted it, I wish I would have known it was in the paint hangar, I would have gone over and taken some pictures.

Thanks! I will see what I can find out about it,
Delta has helped out with the CAF http://dixiewing.org/ painting their warbirds in the past, usually PPG donates the paint, and Delta donates the Hangar space, and labor for the repaints.
