The last photo I took of Yankee Air Museum’s B-17 Yankee Lady taking flight at Thunder Over Michigan in 2022. In light of recent news regarding the grounding of all B17′s regarding a wing spar flaw, the Air Venture season for taking a flight on Yankee Lady is cancelled for 2023. It is unclear if we’ll ever see Yankee Lady fly again. This issue spans all current airworthy B17′s and may be the end of an 80 year era. I personally hope this issue can be mended for all current airworthy B17′s including Yankee Lady as they stand as ambassadors for the legacy of WWII, Aviation, and the men and women who volunteer to maintain these historic machines. Here’s hoping we’ll hear the iconic sound of four props rumbling the skies again someday.  Cheers Yankee Lady, maybe i’ll visit you soon at the museum.
