    B-17G Flying Fortress At Teterboro 7/22/07 [Pics!]

    Liberty Belle [N390TH] was at Teterboro Airport today and was parked outside of the Jet Aviation hangar. I did catch some shots of other planes, but I'm not going to post them for now, since someone did tell me to take photos of the B-17 only. The next shots were taken from the ramp outside of the Jet Aviation terminal. Also, keep in mind that they're all currently unedited, because I haven't gotten time to process them yet.

























    More coming soon.

    You mean they won't let you take photos of the bizjets and other planes, right? Next month, I'm planning to go to HPN to see the B-17. :D

    Thanks!

    Great shots!

    Was the Trump S-76 at Jet Aviation?

    Yes, it was. I got shots of just the heli and it may be in the background of one of the other -17 shots that I'll upload as soon as I get a chance.

    Not sure how long she'll stay, but I heard she was scheduled for a 2:00PM departure yesterday, purely as a rumor, but apparently she's still there. FlightAware reports her still at TEB. I don't know if TEB was an announced scheduled stop, since it doesn't show TEB on their website, but I'm pretty sure they were giving rides yesterday. FlightAware reports her flight here very strangely. It lists her origin as KGEE, but I can't find what airport that is.

    The next stop they put on their website is in Norfolk, VA at Chesapeake Regional Airport on July 26-28.

    Nice Shots...

    As for where she is right now...Maybe some of the pilots here can help, but with some of these warbirds I believe they'll go VFR (is it?) and the flight trackers won't pick them up. Someone will correct me here as I've probably got it wrong, but anyway they are hard to track.

    Certainly is good we have another B-17 (Liberty Belle) in yellow colors since we lost Fuddy Duddy (maybe the most gorgeous of all preserved B-17s) to the West Coast...and perhaps out of the airshow circuit altogether.

    I'll look forward to seeing Liberty Belle at HPN I guess as its one of the few I haven't seen in person yet. Still keeping my fingers crossed for Sentimental Journey to come east though...
