The owner, David Tallichet, knows airplanes. In the Second World War, he flew 22 missions over Germany in a B-17 Flying Fortress. In addition to the planes displayed near the entrance, another 11 sit in the restaurant’s backyard. The majority of them are made of fiberglass constructed from molds from Tallichet’s private collection of aircraft.
