You could see below, both sides, above and straight ahead with a completely unobstructed view. It felt like you were flying in mid-air. Being a huge aviation enthusiast it was easily the best $300 I ever spent for a 60 minute flight

Oh mate. I'm bloody jealous.
Got a bit of a passion for aviation myself.
I've seen the B17 they used in the film at an air show and i've walked through 'Sally B' which was a B17 that actuall y operated in the war but never been up in one.
Got a thing for Vulcan bombers as well.....shame they grounded them.
