B-17 Sally B/Memphis Belle in a formation fly-by with a pair of P-51s re-enacting a typical scene from the second part of WW2. The Mustangs are G-BTCD Ferocious Frankie and D-FBBD Big Beautiful Doll. This was Big Beautiful Doll's last flight with a B-17 as she suffered a mid-collision with Skyraider F-AZDP about an hour after this photo was taken.
