Wow. To think the pilot was probably my age (19), and incharge of a 4-engined bomber! I think my generation has lost its edge.

[ObltKG4]

What an outstanding generation.

Wow..just...wow..I bet that pilot could ride the hell out of a unicycle. no seriously, I wish I could have seen that in person. I would have bought his drink.

Looks like B-17G-65-BO 43-37535 (JW-F) "Baby Button." Received into Station #109 Podington 05 June 1944. Went MIA over Kassel, Germany 22 Sept 44 with Lt. Maurce J. Sample pilot (MACR 9371). Same pilot supposedly that had to crash land into Belgium with B-17G 42-97217 (JW-L), named after my mother, "Punkin," 05 August 1944 coming back from Berlin. Had to crash land into Podington with Engines 1 & 4 out and a flat left tire from an earlier mission. Did repairs and out she went again.

Do any of these people think for a minute that the ball gunner had time to take a seat elsewhere on the airplane for the ditching procedure ? The ball wasn't sealed shut for the duration of the flight, the gunner could get out if he wanted to.

@shizzle5150 totally, amazing skill from the pilot.

Awesome footage!... what's sad is that these boys were probably back up and bombing the next day in another bird! - People just aint as tuff these days.
