After waiting for several hours, the violent thunderstorms finally passed over, and we were able fly like the boidys.
The 4 engines were quieter than I expected, and the vibration wasn't bad, but there were still plenty of disconcerting snap/crackle/pops.

From the rear, where the rear landing gear retracts up in the center of the fuselage, looking forward. The ball turret and 2 wing guns, then the radio/navigator room, the bomb bay and the cockpit.

The catwalk through the bomb bay.

Flying over Lancaster County, at 2000 ft, I was reminded what a beautiful state PA is.

There were a couple more elderly planes visiting today, but can't tell you what they were.
