I would think so. That airplane was actually a famous one. It was a member of the 303rd Bomb Group based at Molesworth. It was the first B-17 to complete 50 missions and also the first one to complete 75 missions. I am looking into what happened after that. I got a litho of a Witkoff charcol of that aircraft for my birthday from my in-laws. It's only 1 of 300 (#92). So I figure it's always good to have the story to go with it.

You know when I lived in California it was real popular to run hot rods on the many dry lakes in the desert. El Mirage and Rogers dry lake are two that have a long history. In the post ww2 years many of these early hotrodders made cars and used old drop tanks for the bodies. I'll try to find the link and post it on the car fourm.

That's a nifty little go-cart!
The glider just looks bizarre though.

Yeah, I don't think a glider would look fierce, regardless of the paintjob!

If I was a German soldier and I saw that coming down, I'd think I'd laugh very loudly!

Agreed. Maybe that was the ploy, make them laugh and give away their position!
