This is the place where the majority of the warbird (aircraft that have survived military service) discussions will take place. Specialized forums may be added in the new future

Yah I'm thinking this photo has been "doctored" up a bit? Something looks strange with that wing behind the B-17 in the forground.

A poor attempt at colorizing a photo too it appears. The 'blue sky' is showing through the wing tip of the 17 behind the lead.

hence the "clipped wing tip" look.

That picture was posted on Reddit a day or two ago. The original was B&W and seen above is a colorized version. Someone had posted a link to their grandfathers album. I'll have to see if I can find a link to the imgur thread with the rest of the photos.
