Rather cool, to be out in the backyard this evening, and hear a large,
powerful airplane. Look up to see a B-24 flying around. Later a B-17
giving rides. They are at the Livermore Airport for the weekend.

Love the sound of radial engines! My uncle was a aviation machinist in
the Navy, then worked in the field after. When I was a kid I'd go to
work with him and hang at the airport maint. facilities all day.
