Boeing B-17 y Consolidated B-24. Documento fotografico.

los que estaban realmente en aprietos en los aterrizajes forzosos eran los de la Ball-Turret, estas acostumbraban a travarse a causa del fuego enemigo y si no tenian tren de aterrizaje pues bueno... ademas si se separaba la cola por un impacto no habia forma de salir.

B-17

Buena foto Hiwi del este puesto torreta,uno de las situaciones del avión donde no me gustaría ir,los pobres casi no le daban tiempo de salir cuando este era alcanzado,se tardaba en quitarse los arneses,en darse la vuelta y salir pitando a la puerta de salto,mucho tiempo si hablamos que está callendo en picado el B.17.

Si, era una fea situacion, la torreta del B-24 era retractil, la del B-17 no.

Un video de un Boeing restaurado, bonito sonido el de los 4 motores.
