Inside the B-17 Flying Fortress Liberty Belle WW2 Bomber
Loading...
Uploaded by surfsupusa on Oct 1, 2008
This video documents the experience of flying in the B-17 Flying Fortress bomber, Liberty Belle. The plane took off from Chester County Airport in Coatesville, Pennsylvania and landed at Albany International Airport in New York. Three years after this flight on June 13, 2011 the plane caught fire and was destroyed after takeoff from Aurora airport near Chicago. Seven crew members and volunteers escaped without serious injury. If you go to my youtube channel I have re-rendered this video in HD and with the engine sounds (no music).

@Reconseal4050 no, they aren't nukes. just the shell of the the type of bombs that were used when the aircraft was used in service.

@alekzander2010 technically a nuclear device dose not need to be a "2 ton fat metal object" a nuclear device just needs to have a small amount of enriched uranium, hydrogen or cobalt...... all elements used in different nuclear weapons, which is then surrounded by tnt (trinitrotoluene) or some other explosive device, which when detonated in sequence puts immense pressure on the radio active element. and the element already being fairly unstable implodes, releasing all of its energy.....
