I like it! :D Looks amazing. There are enough b-17's flying allready in the US. This one should make a great museum display.

I asked in the Swamp Ghost thread, but I found this...

Any recent pics?

If you follow my link to my aircraft section you can see pics from when I was there. The aircraft is restored, and just waiting for the building to be finished. It is in a really sweet hangar now, but will great when it goes on display. They have the original props including the one that the crew cut the tips off of to make a generator. This prop will go backon the aircraft. The interior was just amazing. The local government just decided to support the project as well, so now things should get rolling.

The plane is all complete. Wings engines everything is done, just needs the building so that it can be assembled.
