About This File

FSX/P3D v3/v4 Early B17-D Flying Fortress. The Boeing B-17 Flying Fortress is a four-engined heavy bomber developed in the 1930s for the United States Army Air Corps (USAAC). The B17 bomber was intended from the outset to attack strategic targets by precision daylight bombing, penetrating deep into enemy territory by flying above the effective range of antiaircraft artillery. Turbo-supercharged radial engines were to give the necessary high-altitude performance, and heavy defensive armament was to provide protection against attacking fighters. FSX/P3D model by A.F. Scrub.

Very nice download! Flies well! Pic above is the VC cockpit. The 2d panel which I prefer, is more realistic and not a game-like appearance of the VC cockpit. JMHO!

A War movie is a bit empty without the appearance of the B-17 flying over France and Germany pounding the hell out of the German Forces. Sadly, many were lost, shot down. The human race needs too NEVER FORGET. The history of November,11th should be taught in every school, beginning in grade 1. If you failed kindergarten then there's no hope for you. You are too stupid to wipe your own butt.:cool:

Beautiful rendering of a D model. Very impressive!!!!!Any chance of converting this FSX version for use with FS9? Here's why I ask....In that now famous 1943 movie "Air Force" a B-17d Named "Mary Ann" was the star throughout the film which told the story of that ill-fated flight of mixed B-17s which left Hamilton Field on the evening of December 6th, 1941 and arrived over Honolulu right in the middle of the Jappanese air attack. I have detailed both Hamilton Field, Hickam Field and Pearl Harbor to that era and would like to replicate the departure scene from Hamilton Fld with thie D model (alias Mary Ann) leading the pack out over the Golden Gate Bridge and on West to Hawaii. I'll work out the Hawaii arrival later!!!Existing B-17e models would work but I'm looking for a Mary Ann.
