Interesting B-17 Story

The Collings Bombers are currently at Sebring Florida...the tour so far is picking up pace. The B-25 is really attracting a whole new clan of veterans. THere is a B-17 buried at the end of the runway...and in the right conditions you can see both wing tips poking through the dirt. Apparently it crashed whilst on approach and they simply buried her where she lay.
