I was lucky enough to be out at the airport and capture video of it arriving and departing Essex County.

Good ones! I went up in Aluminum Overcast this summer. Fantastic flight. It was all the more special because we had a special fellow-passenger -- an 88 year-old former bombardier. He was very unsteady on his feet and it was awkward getting him through the bomb bay walkway to the navigator's perch, but he was so thrilled that it was incredibly heartwarming just to be there and listen to him reminisce.
