It's "Yankee Lady" a B-17G owned and operated by the Yankee Air Museum up here. I happen to live under the 5R approach and get to watch them fly the pattern occasionally.
 
Haha! I was playing Call Of Duty while it was flying over every 15min or so... sounded like WWII in my apartment!

Spase, do you live in Lake Shore?

Why yes... I do live at Lake Shore...

It's been flying enough lately that even my wife can recognize it going by. Pilotyip (not sure if he's on here or APC or some other forum) was my G/S instructor at UJ. He's their primary pilot on that and the C-47 and B-25. got quite a few great stories about flying those birds during G/S.
 
It makes you wish they didn't charge a billion dollars for a 10 minute ride in them. I took this photo about a year ago.
