I need the best picture of any model of the B-17 flying fortress

[special ed]

Don't forget the "Spotted Cow" in picture of the day thread - a sunset or sunrise could be added - it would be my favorite BEST.

I need ANY picture of a B-17, in flight or on the ground with the upcoming winning Powerball Numbers displayed as its ID codes.

The winning numbers are always the numbers I didn't pick so for this draw I didn't pick any numbers, guaranteed winner, baby

Has he mentioned the color for a model he wants to build?

Maybe it'll just be a silhouette as he's after the sunset scene…

Let me guess. She promptly hit you in the face with her purse and said, "Idiot! Why wouldn't they use V-1710's? They already had turbosuperchargers!"

Had she actually said that, I would've married her.

Had she actually said that, I would've married her.

And she would have turned out to be an alien robot from the future.

any picture you can find

I need ANY picture of a B-17, in flight or on the ground with the upcoming winning Powerball Numbers displayed as its ID codes.

Here's a 'shopped image of mine from Wings Over Dallas 2017 ... the air was full of smoke from the Tora-Torah-etc "show" and I had to kinda "rescue" this image from light smoke.

I also have photos of "Texas Raiders" from that same year at Dallas, and a few others from later years.

I am a member on this site and my Uncle Joe was a tailgunner on the B-17 Mrs Geezil and was shot down on April 13th 1944 on a mission to Schweinfurt.
6 out of 7 B-17's from his squadron(545th) were shot down that day. Heavies loss from the 384th Bomb Group during the war.

Here is the Aircraft section of the 384th Bomb Groups website.
