Mesa’s B-17 Bomber "Sentimental Journey"
Update: 2022-02-08
Description
When Mesa resident Fred Engstrom was eighteen he enlisted in the Army Air Force and learned how to fly. Two years later he flew twenty-five missions over Germany in the plane that some people say won the war - a B-17 bomber. Today you can take a ride in a B-17 (and other vintage warbirds) at Falcon Field operated by the Arizona Commemorative Air Force. That’s where I met Fred. It was an honor to ride along with him on his 26th mission.
