VACANT APARTMENTS BURN--March 6, 2013 Atlanta: Firefighter, Corey Cottrell of Engine 16 steadies a stream on the raging fire Wednesday. Firefighters had strong winds and freezing temperatures to contend with Wednesday morning, Mar. 6, 2013 as they battled a huge fire at a vacant apartment complex in northwest Atlanta. The two-story building in the 1100 block of Joseph E. Boone Boulevard was fully involved in wind-whipped flames when firefighters arrived around 5:15 a.m., Atlanta fire Battalion Chief Edward Hill said. Hill said crews immediately went into “defensive” mode, battling the flames from the outside the burning building. “It was too dangerous to even think about going inside,” Hill told the Atlanta Journal-Constitution. “The main thing is no one gets hurt and everyone goes home in the morning.” Hill said that while the cause of the fire remained under investigation, it was likely started by vagrants.
“That’s the problem we have with these vacant apartments,” he said. “You have homeless people living in them and subsequently they start fires and this is the result of it.” JOHN SPINK / JSPINK@AJC.COM

A FLIGHT BACK IN TIME--022713 ATLANTA: It's a flight back in time for WWII veteran Rudolph Phillips, 91, Woodstock, who gathers his thoughts on board the movie "Memphis Belle", a restored WWII B-17 "flying fortress" bomber celebrating the 70th anniversary of it's historic last mission over Peachtree DeKalb Airport on Wednesday, Feb. 27, 2013, in Atlanta. Phillips was a gunnery instructor during the war and said "when they dropped the bomb I was in California crewing up to go over to the Pacific. I haven't been on a B-17 since." Phillips said every time he sees a plane he thinks about the men who didn't come back and that he wished he was still in as good a shape as he was back then. The aircraft will be open to the public and available for ground tours and paid flights that help keep the plane operating on Saturday and Sunday, March 2-3. CURTIS COMPTON / CCOMPTON@AJC.COM
