For the brave and the few, the B-17 and B-25 pages were just updated.

The brave and the few are appreciative!

I've always wondered about the former Hughes B-25C. Seeing as how the fuselage is so heavily butchered, I wonder if the wing center section is a more viable candidate for mating with something like, oh, say the B-25B fuselage held by Aero Traders?

Ah, if only I could win the Texas lottery...
Cheers!

The B-17 "Fortress on the Plains" sculpture looks interesting, however there doesn't appear to be enough wing span. 8)

Thanks for the update, Scott! Well, I guess I can show my dad what happened to "his" B-17 at Paducah, KY. I've since heard that the early B-17Gs did not have the cheek gun position - that would narrow down the serial number range a bit - how many were there like this?

P.S. Scott, did you get my PM about the proofreading?
