    BR 03-92 in a B-17G

    I took my BR 03-92 Golden Heritage up for a flight in the B-17G "Aluminum Overcast' today.
    The Time Instrument looked right at home with the Flight Instruments.

    It was loud but not unbearable. We wore earplugs.

    The flight was around 30 minutes long and we got the chance to explore the entire plane except the tail gunner area and ball turret which is too cramped and dangerous to get to unless you're trained for that.

    An amazing experience for sure. Highly recommended!
