"Fi-Fi"

[CINDERS]

Thought I would share this one with the crowd not taking anything away from the B-17 but the B-29 was like light years ahead in taking the fight to the enemy.
For its day the ballistic computer that calculated drop & lead to the target was a quantum leap in shooting at fighters, from memory I think the gunners could control any turret think they switched between each other.
Still it gives you an idea of what a great aircraft it was in the day I enjoyed it, though the flight engineer would go dial & lever crazy I think.
