When I went through a B-17 at the Palm Springs Museum a while back, the thing that amazed me was how small that airplane is. It looks much bigger on film. The cockpit is tiny--two small seats with minimal headroom. The fuselage is barely wide enough to fit two guys abreast, and the skin is almost like tin foil. I don't know how they fit 10 guys in that plane.
