B-17 Flying Fortress

This Revell plastic model of the B-17 Flying Fortress was a joint effort between my son, Philip, and me. It was part of my program to teach him model building and finishing skills. The project turned out pretty well if I do say so myself.

Colorado Springs, CO (circa 1998)

"The Boeing B-17 Flying Fortress is a four-engine heavy bomber aircraft developed for the United States Army Air Corps (USAAC) introduced in the 1930s." - Wikipedia
