Interview with 100 year-old B-17 Pilot

Those guys that I have met are great, they are usually very calm. They don't get rattled, they have been there. I had the privilege of flying Aluminum Overcast for about 10 minutes, straight and level with one 180° turn. I banked into it pretty good, left aileron and right top rudder. I lost 100 ft, the pilot seemed impressed. Wonderfully noisy truck she was. God bless them and the pilots and crew that flew them as a team.
