Hi All,
I don’t think this has been featured in this thread before, if it has my apologies to whoever posted it 1st time around , still it has some good B-58 Hustler low level flying. Could this aircraft be considered the US’s answer to the Vulcan ? 😉

All three B-17 shots are B-17F’s. The War Lover used Navy PB-1’s / B-17G’s. I can’t recall the aircraft used in 12 O’clock High.

Don’t know if this has been posted before but found this on War History Online. Cant help feeling the B17 pics are from the filming of The War Lover or 12 o’clock High?
