Deployed on all the theaters of operations (Europe, Mediterranean and Pacific) this four-engine American heavy bomber is among the most famous aircraft of the Second World War and the post-war period.
Its predominant role in the destruction of major German and Japanese urban and industrial centers, also inspired the entertainment industry, which seized upon the unfailing commitment of the B-17 crews to stage them in big-budget films and series (Howard Hawks’ Air Force, Menphis Bell and soon the mini-series Masters of the Air, produced by Steven Spielberg and Tom Hanks).
