B-24 over Long Beach

I started a new job in South Pasadena so I’ve been taking the train to work, but Friday was an exception. The last thing I expect to see in heavy traffic at the I-710/I-405 interchange is a fly-by by a fully operational B-24 bomber and I was so stunned by it and the neat buzz the engines made that I forgot to take a picture until it was well out over downtown Long Beach.

Apparently it’s at LGB for a couple days.
