I remember touring the Confederate Air Force museum when it was in Galveston. I was always surprised that the WWII fighters were so big and the bombers so small. Seemed like there should have been more size difference.
We had the good luck to be present when they wee wheeling a B-17 back into the hangar, so we got nice and close.
It's still here. The CAF has changed it's name but they are still based in Texas I believe. The B-17 still flies on a regular basis and it routinely flies over my house as this is about as far north, about 25 miles from the air field in Galveston, as they come on the paid flights they run. I believe a ride on the B-17 is about $350.00.
