I think I have seen that B-17C wreckage after watching "Broken Wings (Host by Pat Macha)" from History Channel and found out how did B-17C crash. It really intresting to find wreckage aircraft in the States.

I did thought they move the wreckage after found the wreckage, but I guess they just leave it alone like Grave or something.

After doing some in depth research.I have found out that the wreck is about 5 miles from the area where i camp every year.
So I think I'll have to pay a visit to it this year.
