Boeing B-17D "The Swoose" This aircraft is the oldest surviving B-17 Flying Fortress and the only D model in existence. Originally named Ole Betsy, this B-17D participated in several bombing missions in the desperate weeks after Pearl Harbor.

George Brett. #avgeek #restoration | National Museum of the U.S. Air Force
