Awwww, I had even started a skin like this of my own (until the crappy mapping and mirroring of the B-17 model completely discouraged me). From what I recall, there were only 2 B-17s painted this way. The IAF's 3rd B-17 was painted an overall dark sand color as there was not enough time to finish the camo before it was needed for flying missions.
Now I'm gonna have to go back and finish that skin! Cool looking skin, vp! Downloading now... Got any other Forts in the works? |

LoL... nice scheme!
Desert B-17 "Controversially, Pierce's final Zeke kill on this month took the form of Tom McGuire's seemingly indestructible fifth victim, the former having watched growing impatience as the major, and several other P-38 pilots in his formation, made futile attempts at downing the Japanese fighter. With a sure hand, he deftly dropped down on the unfortunate Zeke from a superior altitude, slotted in behind it, and promptly shot it down with a single burst! Pierce shrugged off the personal invective levelled at him over the airwaves by a rather peeved McGuire, who accused him of being 'a thieving interlooper'." |

One of the first ones actually carried out a bombing mission on its delivery flight from Europe, it had broom handles instead of guns to save weight flew to Eygpt dropped it's load on King Farouks Royal Palace in Cairo before arriving in Israel |

Absolutely superb skin VP, the story of Israels aquisition and use of the B-17 and the other types that flew during the war of independance is a facinating one.
