Description

May 20, 2006 Chino Airshow...Nothing like the sound of four Wright Cyclones purring together as this B-17G currently being restored to a completely authentic example of a WWII ETO Flying Fortress makes a pass over the field. This is a late G with a Cheyenne tail gunners position.

"Pistol Packin' Mama" is the reason I got to liken' the b-17s, a full crew of all females, that was unheard of! Nancy Love, pilot and Betty Gillies, co-pilot were the first women to fly the Boeing B-17.

Not too familiar with the G model however =/
