B-17 at the Eighth Air Force Musuem Comes Together
The B-17 at the Mighty Eighth Air Force Museum is now almost fully assembled. Part of the tail is missing, but otherwise it is almost complete. It currently does not have any of its turrets due to being in civilian service, but they are going to try to locate some to restore it to it's wartime configuration. A lot of paint and interior work is still to come, but it is fantastic to see it in one piece.
