B-29 spotted over Fort Worth, TX

[Odie]

Sitting at my desk this afternoon and spotted an aircraft circling the area around Alliance Airport here in FTW. Monday it was a P3 Orion and I glanced out the window thinking it might be another, but no, it was a B-29!

It made 3 racetrack loops of the area and then disappeared.

Never seen one in flight before (except on TV) so this was a treat!
