The Boeing B-17 Flying Fortress is one of those machines that feels less like an aircraft and more like a flying legend hammered out of aluminum and resolve. Born in the late 1930s, it became one of the most iconic American bombers of World War II, famous for its durability, heavy defensive guns, and the ability to limp home even when heavily damaged.
