I wish the pilots of the commercial jets I'm on could make such beautiful landings.

This B-17, real serial number 44-83546 first was converted to a CB-17G and then to a VB-17G. It was sold on the civilian market as an aerial tanker registered as N3703G. It WAS restored as a B-17F and was used in 1989 in the movie "Memphis Belle".

I recently heard there is video of a B-17G flying along side a B-52H. If this is true does anyone know where I can find it?

I did a quick google search and couldn't find anything like that online. But if footage of that does exist, I'd really like to see it too!

I found a photo (though I don't know where I found it) of a Fortress flying next to a Buff but I can't tell if its photo shopped or not.

B-17G Fuddy Duddy is owned by a General William Lyon (USAF retired), of Southern California. As of a couple of years ago, the aircraft was kept at Martin Aviation at John Wayne Airport in Orange County, California.
