Disclaimer: I first found this story from YarnHub. Recently I decided to build it, in SP. I am a YarnHub fan.

Notes/Controls:

This is a complicated plane. It has a lot of reasons in it. It's the Ye Olde Pub, a B-17 "Flying Fortress", which was spared by Franz Stigler's BF-109. It's an important plane in history, showing the honor in war. The aircraft managed to make it to England, with only the tail gunner a fatality. I made a similar B-17 1.5 years ago, and I wanted to test my skills. I have custom control surfaces on this aircraft, with very thin normal wings to aid the aircraft's lift, done by NotSoNormalPioneer. The aircraft has an interior, for its rear gunner module, and for its cockpit. In order to operate the rear guns, you have to use trim to move them up and down. The cockpit has 3 different camera vantages. There are 2 auto aiming turrets included on this aircraft, 1 tail gunner, 2 waist gunners, and a bombardier who operates two guns. The aircraft has been xml modded for more health. This allows it to shrug off gunfire, but flak will take this aircraft down. The cockpit is a marvel, created by chickenisderp. This aircraft is in dedication of @Cyan, a close friend who gave me two seperate upvote streaks. Thank you @Cyan.

chickenisderp created the awesome cockpit you see here.

thebanbehindtheslaughter created the BF-109, and all guns.

NotSoNormalPioneer got the aircraft to fly properly, with his small real wing technique.

    B-17 is one of my faves and this is a good one
