Hello,

Y1B-17, looking for decent, somewhat detailed 3 views. Also looking for a copy of the IPMS mag where someone did the Academy B-17B conversion, as I wasn't and IPMS member at that time.

Any help or suggestions on books, etc. would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks,

Ed
 
Picked these up from a Polish book, titled, "Boeing B-17 Flying Fortress", by Jacek Nowicki. I could only find one 3-view of a Boeing Model 299, but not the -299B, or Y1B-17 as it was known.

Thanks Whstlngdeath,

These will be very helpful. Still looking to find an upper wing planform to determine the length of the relative engine setback, length of the exhaust shrouds, etc.
