Hi all, I need some pictures of the B-17E (MkII Fortress) in service with the RAF. I think they were used as coastal patrol bombers, as the MkI Fortress failed miserably as an RAF daylight bomber. Any help is much appreciated!

This guy really out-did himself with this built from scratch B-17 cockpit. It's a work of art.

Looking for photos of this 97th BG B-17E that flew on the first 8th Air Force raid in 1942. Thanks for any help!

Still taking images to add to my collection if anyone has some!

Thanks guy's! Keep 'em coming!

Anyone else? :)

Thanks guys! Those are GREAT!

Thanks Treize!

I am trying to compile as many pictures as I can of the 512 B-17E's that were built by Boeing during WWII. Early B-17E models had flat nose cone and no chin turret. The photo album of this website has been a tremendous resource. If anyone has any pictures of B-17E's out of books or magazines...

Bob, I cannot see the pictures of your bombsight. The B-17 was equipped with the Nordon bombsight.....an extremely complex mechanical computer for that day and age. I think you would know if you had one or not. Here is a picture for reference. As far as I know, every B-17 made was equipped...

Email me at [email protected] with what your idea is and maybe I can help you. Tim

Holy crap.....is this tool actually threatening us? I am scared sh**less..........:rolleyes:

Your observations of these frames are almost child-like and very laughable. Go find some other forum to post your "great nazi-victory" find.

I think "OOST VLAANDEREN" boy wishes to death that it was a -262 that did this. You need to get f-ing real with yourself man. The plane doesn't even have any turrets. Also identifying the plane as "B-17 N" doesn't make you look like that much of an expert. Sheesh.....:rolleyes:
