Yeah, it was crazy to see the pics of the damaged B-17’s still flying with missing horizontals and parts of the verticals. A Docent was telling us that there is one story of a tail separating from the B-17 and due to the large surface areas, the tail gunner survived the crash of the tail section after it hit the ground.
They had a good movie of clips of crews standing next to flak slammed birds.
Last year at night. Kinda wished there was some ground fog to give it a UK feel. Same bird when it was at the Mather Air Show
