B-17 and B-25

Two heroes of World War II drew a crowd Thursday, August 11 when they landed for a four-day gig at Bayview Airport in Burlington. First to arrive was the B-17 “Sentimental Journey,” followed about 20 minutes later by the B-25 “Maid in the Shade.” Among onlookers was Anacortes resident Dave Cawley, who flew PBYs for the U.S. Navy during his World War II tour of duty. A group of media representatives made the first flight of what will likely be numerous flights over the course of the next few days. Tours cost $5, flights start at $395.

About Photographer Steve Berentson

A fourth generation Skagit County native who was moved kicking and screaming from this island community in 1960. I finally reclaimed an Anacortes address in 1980, and I have been in constant celebration of my return since that time. Many of us who call Anacortes home love Fidalgo Island for its natural assets: among them are rugged beaches, pristine lakes, thousands of acres of forestland and some awesome views of the Skagit Valley and surrounding islands. Another element of my love affair with this community is its people, both natives and immigrants. They will “star” in many of my journal entries.
