Item: B-17 sparks attention, memories: Flying Fortress tour stops at Coeur d'Alene Airport/Noah Buntain, Spokesman-Review

Kathy Plonka/Spokesman-Review

Mark McWhorter of Hayden and his son Cade, 2 1/2, check out the B-17 Flying Fortress, a World War II vintage bomber airplane at the Coeur d'Alene Air Terminal in Hayden on Monday. The Flying Fortress will be on display from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. Tuesday through Thursday.

I have mentioned this once already, but for anyone that missed it, there is a beautiful B-17 Flying Fortress sitting out on the far runway at the very end of Atlas Road. For historians and Veterans, it's a real treat to see. I visited her yesterday and will be out there evey day this week watching her take off and land. It is something we might never see again, so if your interest is up, go visit her. There are tours of her in the afternoons -- Stickman.
