Title: B-17 Flight Crew
Post by: LBE151 on June 04, 2001, 04:17:00 PM

Hello all,
My grandfathers B-17 flight crew is getting together this month and was wondering if any of you had any questions for me to ask them.
I have some but maybe you all have some I did  not think about. I will repost after I talk with them.

uh...how hard was it actually to shoot down a plane? Harder than AH? Did a lot of them barrel roll in from the side and try to go for the wing? How accurate were the bomb sights?

Mainly, what went through their minds when they were overseas?  What was it like?

Thanks (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/smile.gif)

Here's a couple based on current game play.

How ofter did they take a fully loaded B17 up to 35K?

How often did they turnfight a fighter at high altitude?
