Product Description

The "Flying Fortress" bomber built by Boeing is one of the most famous airplanes ever made. The prototype of the B-17 first flew on July 28, 1935. Few B-17's were in service on December 7, 1941, but production quickly accelerated. The aircraft served in every WW II combat zone, but is best known for daylight strategic bombing of German industrial targets. Production ended in May 1945 and totaled 12,726. Flown by Maj. Paul Tibbets. Red Gremlin was not piloted by Tibbets on the first mission over Europe, but he did fly the majority of his European missions in this aircraft.
