next time you watch "tora, tora, tora" keep your eye out for the carboard B17s. this stunt was probably used in a lot of flicks from that day. CGI has replaced a lot of that now.

a pretty good video about b 24s. shows mission procedure from start to finish. although i will say there were a lot of B17 shots used for this. but still good to watch.

HD footage of a 17 and 25 over the arizona hills. kind of like the one of the lanc over canada. HD is so crisp it almost looks fake...

absolutely stunning, i have to ask what was the score used...ive heard it before in a stage show.

[edit: It's actually from the John Adams HBO opening theme, fantastic piece of work]

Here is a small set of some photos I took at the Evergreen Aviation Museum about a year ago. They have an awesome display of planes, but it's tough to photograph them because they are packed in so tight you can't get a wide shot.
