More about commercial B-17s (http://home.att.net/~jbaugher2/b17_26.html)

Edit: Would you buy B-17 if price is 1$ ?  :D

That plane is beautiful to me as well Buzzbait. But hell just because I am a LW driver does not mean I hate US planes. Every nation had ugly planes but they all had a purpose.

I have never seen a plane that I thought was ugly.  I love them all.
