this is the Boeing B-17G-45-Bo flying fortress of the 447th Bomb Group also knows as "Fuddy Duddy", soooo.. the B-17 is one of my favourite bombers of all time specifically the G. I've wanted to make this aircraft for a long time nearly since I started playing SP. But now is the time

Nots

I first intended to give it a cockpit interior but due to parts and it being laggy. I decided not to give it. To avoid further lag
|
|
first when I got the idea. I wanted to make one with the traditional olive green camouflage but due to it reaching almost 600 parts. I also had to cut that off
|
|
I wanted to make all the guns and armament controllable but due to the Activation groups not being enough. So I had to pur only the major ones

Tips

|
|
I Recommend using low physics since that's what I build on
|
|
When landing. Make sure to descend it smoothly to avoid bouncing
