NO plane could ever win a war by its self. But your right, it did help us a lot. It was one of our most publicized planes throughout the war and still is known among people today as a great plane.

yes, i should think there should be alot of usaaf bashin, with a plane like the b-17, can you blame us? :D
;) the B-17 was a exelent bomber,Lancasters got shot down alot as well,maybe you should try reading up on the B-17 a bit and look at Britesh loses as well,AND remember the britesh bombed in the darkness of night!!! while the B-17's bombed in the day,if lancs bombed more in the day they would be shot down more than the B-17's :lol:

okok, take it easy, it's only a bit of friendly rivalry.................
 
Let's put it this way guy's:

1. The Lancaster could carry the greatest bomb load of any WWII bomber, but couldn't really defend it's self too well - not so good :cry:

2. The B-17 could defend it's self very well, but had the same bomb load as a twin engined Mosquito - not so good :cry:
