I was at the car races in Sebring (Florida) last month. Sebring was a WW2 training base for B-17 crews during the war, and became a racetrack after it was closed by the military. As part of the 50th anniversary celebration (the race started in '52), the race organizers had a fly-over of a B-17 courtesy of the Collings Foundations' "Nine O Nine". Some photos of it are here:

You can take these photos and use them as a screensaver or desktop wallpaper, order them printed onto mousepads, whatever. I hope you enjoy seeing them as much as I enjoyed taking them!

Hmmm. I don't recognize that sim and I thought I knew most of'em that're out there. At first I thought maybe it was a FS2000 or FS2002 aircraft imported into CFS2, but I don't recall the atomic bomb being an option in that game!
