Presumably there was damage to the approach lights though!

Accident report says only one crewmember - no co-pilot???

Is the B-17 approved for single-pilot operations?

Only in parties of 1 or less!

Looks like it was not referring to a crew of one, but rather one crew member injured.

Honestly, t looks like an entry error. If there was 1 crew member injured, then there should have been a 1 next to whatever grade of injury (FAT, SER, MIN, UNK) and there's not. In addition up at the top, under "Highest Injury" it says "NONE", which again begs the question as to why there's a "1" in the crew with no other "1" entered.

So we've managed to determine......
1. There were more than 1 person onboard.
2. No one was hurt
But, has Jake Holman said............................

"What the h*ll happened?"

Seconded. And ironically we now have a McQueen type, Daniel Craig, playing James Bond!
