How can a b17 lift such a heavy load?  The B17 appears to still have its regular armament, perhaps it is flying with an extremely reduced fuel load?

Bah.   I  just wish they would fix the ordinance load out on the TBM and F4U-4:

(never mind. pics of BAT bombs on TBM and F4U-4 too big)

But the only good B-17 is the BQ-7 version of the "17" ;)

K west, it's just a matter of time till the Bats escape and start living in the hangers.  Then there'll be  a 'mess' on the floor and more whinning about that.  It will just go on and on.....

There was a time in U.S aircraft development when "everything got hung under anything"   That picture is a fine example of those days.
