CAF Mesa Batch 1 [01/42] - CAF Mesa Batch 1 Index 1.jpg (0/1)

Here are some images taken last November at the Arizona Wing of the Commemorative Air Force in Mesa. The museum is relatively small but it has some interesting exhibits.

When threading my way round the interior of the B-17 it struck me how cramped it is despite the size of the aircraft. It must have been an uncomfortable beast to fly in. It would have been bitterly cold at 20,000ft, incredibly noisy and during WWII having to deal with the ever present danger of enemy fighters and flak. One has to admire the men who flew during that time.
