    NATO days 2010, Ostrava, Czech Republic

    Sept. 15 - Sept. 19, 2010 DNY NATO v Ostrav?
    B-52 and even this Hurricane Hurricane Mk I R4118 UP-W should be among the other birds...DNY NATO v Ostrav?
    I was there last year and I really enjoyed this event http://www.ww2aircraft.net/forum/war...lic-20786.html (NATO DAYS 2009, Ostrava, Czech Republic)

    IŽll post some pics after the event.



    ...in memory of my friend Joe Owsianik, a former right waist gunner from B-17G, 42-97159 from 2ndBG 20th Sqdn, who was forced to bail out on Aug. 29th, 1944 over my country. Joe passed away on Novemer 1, 2010.

    If it's the one I think it is, rescued from, I think, India and then restored from a pile of scrap, I think I saw it at Duxford, the day before we arrived at Slavicin last year. I'll check my pics to see if I can see the serial number - it was parked behind a Spit in one of the hangars, so couldn't get a clear shot.

    They say on their web that this is the one and last Hurry that participated on BoB.

    Just checked my Duxford pics Roman, and the Hurricane is not the same one. I've read the book on the one visiting Ostrava, and it is the one I was thinking of, but I haven't seen it - yet!
    it's been restored right down to the last detail, as it was in the BoB - fantastic.
