I wonder what it would cost, today, to build a new B-17 , using original blueprints to specs. Guns and all

[@tractorsandengines]

Have you ever seen B-17 live? :)

[@Sennmut]

Yes. Took my mom to an airshow once, and we climbed through it, to the strains of Glen Miller on the intercom. I teased her at being in a machine younger than she was.

...YES , WHILE ON A WORK ASSIGNMENT IN MEMPHIS , TN. WE WENT TO SEE THE MEMPHIS BELL...I WAS SUPRISED TO SEE HOW SMALL IT WAS...COMPARED TO THE P-3 ORION WE WERE WORKING ON...

Unfortunately two B-17 bombers in this video were destroyed in crashes the 909 and the Texas Rader. At least two others are being restored back to flightworth condition so the next generation will be able to see them.

Going to meto pwr right after liftoff is bad form not safe...I always went to meto pwr after pattern altitude 1500 feet....no one's saving the engines reducing right after liftoff! Read p/w letter on it. My engines always went to TBO 1200hrs R20007M2.
