Radio Room Light

Does anybody have or even require any of these, Do not think I have seen any fitted to any B-17. Looking to have them made, in the final stages of manufacturing, just really need to know how big the market is for them, there should be 2 per aircraft. These are the later style, as there are more G mo...

B-17 Ball and Upper Turrets

Hi All, Has anyone any thoughts on where I/Film company, can hire any of these turrets for use in the new Red Tails film? There are some scenes that could involve close up shots and movement of the turrets and would be nice to use the proper ones instead of having to rely on cgi . If anyone has any ...

Perhaps you can have another heading/link as with the Desert Rat one, to keep the progress in one place where we all can see it better.

New film

Scott,
Just to let you know that you will need to update your movies page later on in the year with the film 'Red Tails' as a certain French B-17 is being used in it very shortly.
I hope to have some photos later on after filming.

A bit premature, but this is the site for anything B-17 related.

Book

And a copy would be nice for the rest of us. I am building a B-17 cockpit section as some of you know and am hoping to incorporate a fuselage and radio room, so any info on these areas would be a bonus for me. You should be able to find a good and worthwhile home for it, and Bill and the guys with D...

B-17 Seat frames

Hi, I am looking for a pair of B-17 seat frames, does anyone have any spare or parts of them. Really need to finish my cockpit as something is in the pipeline where it will be needed.
I have the drawings, but please have a dig around, there must be some surplus somewhere.

Thanks in advance
