i just lined up a flight in a b-17 with my brother in mid may.
kind of a day in the lift of WW2 air crew
allowed to get in the functioning ball turret while in flight
will also get to drop a few dummy bombs at a pickle barrel, using the nordson up front
should be a epic day
It's a B-24, you can tell by the high wing and twin rudder.
I can’t begin to describe my disappointment in the Hide. It’s been 4 hours and no one has photoshopped a rubber cock into each outstretched fist? You’re better than this, people.
I hopped a flight in a B17, bare bones 30 min flight. If I recall, a nose seat cost 200 more, and I really didn't want to crawl in there. Ball turret and tail gunner slots were not an option, and by looking at both, I came to the conclusion that most high school juniors today would never fit in either.
If you are 5'6', -150, GTG!
still in getting the particulars figured out as we want to drop more shit lol
we were lined up last year but there was a maintenance issue
the lady said the 24 is more visual for dropping because the rack is open and you see them slide out
but she said if your into it, the 17 is pinnacle of the experience
i believe we get 1-2 drops each but we said that 1-2 just wont do it lol
they said being in the ball turret while in the air some people get motion sickness, so ill be drugged up with a barf bag
as i get more info ill post it

BOMBER CAMP 2021 | STOCKTON AIRPORT, CA

i did one of those in 2003, no ball turret i forget if they allowed the tail
there was a 24 and a 17, the 24 had the tail gun open but was not flying that afternoon
was over my parents house and i saw a 17 fly over, low
i told my wife, get a ride home with my sister in law im going to track down where he is landing...wasnt happy
was a perfect summer day, even had the top hatch behind the top hump open so we could stick our heads out
50's in the windows and top turret
bombardier seat was open, i have a few pics of me in it "looking"
this wont be cheap but its a once in a lifetime event
Definitely a B24 Liberator. Has 4 engines. If you see the same general shape with 2 engines....likely a B25 Mitchell.
Have fun! Surreal was the word I used when we landed. I took our godson up, and promised the younger brother we would do it again next yr when he turned 12, min age. They never came back, yr we flew, covid and their turnout was limited at best.
I was just warning you on the ball turret thing, you better be diminutive in size, like the guys that did fly missions, and balls, 5 times bigger than mine, lol
Spock didn't spend 4 years in Starfleet Academy earning a Science Officer Commission and the rank of Lieutenant Commander for some schmuck to call him Mister.The pediatrician's name was "Benjamin." Benjamin Spock.
Besides the last "Red Shirt" that called him Mister had to do flutter kicks till he begged for the Vulcan Death Grip.
im 5 10" but i lift weights so im bulky up top
i might be covered in butter to squeeze in if i make it
they have one on the ground that they see if you fit, to begin with
but as long as the hatch closes for 5 min it good enough for me
Are you Dr. Sheldon Cooper?
Why not? Surgeons in the UK, Rep. of Ireland, and other "commonwealth" nations (who earned an MD degree and did all that time in residency etc. etc.) are still called "Mister." Only physicians in "Internal Medicine" and related areas, etc. are called "Doctor."
Why are male Surgeons called "Mister"
ETA: How do you know that Spock's education and training at Starfleet actually earned him a Doctorate degree?

Cant imagine the slap fight trainig they were doing
Highly motivated on replacing my Never Summer Snow Trooper Snowboard with a Never Summer Hammer snowboard
Tramp stamp special? Yep, but you have to enlarge the page really large to see them. Let me go back and look again just to make sure.....
Father was a ball turret gunner in a B-24 with the 829th of the 485th flying out of Turin during WWII. They have static display of a B-24 with a ball turret next to it at the Pima Air Museum. That thing is really small and never figured out how he fit in it let alone for hours on end during a mission.
ill tell you how
drafted
young (and stupid lol)
not being a pussy
90% of problems in life are solved by not being a pussy..we used to understand that
they have one on the ground to practice getting in and to make sure you fit
If you really want to punch Nazi's, head your asses over to Ukraine, you'll get all you want. You fucking pussies!
Lol, truth!
But as a whole, people are considerably larger than in 1944 and it's not all the mcdonalds crowd.
Let us know when you don't fit!
ill be so pissed, my brother is around 6' but skinny so he might be licking his knees but he'll squeeze in
EDIT... 6' not 6"... im not from pennsyltucky lol

Here is a nightmare for you. She could run on the platform of repeating what Biden is doing only worse.
