Background information:
The Boeing B-17 became a legend during World War II and is symbolic of the heavily armed strategic bombers of that time. The B-17F Memphis Belle, named after the pilot's girlfriend, became particularly famous and was the first US Army Air Force bomber to survive 25 missions in Europe. She later became the star of a Hollywood film and now stands as a monument in the city of Memphis. With this kit you can bring a piece of history home and experience the impressive engineering of these machines.
