Actually I looked it up and surprisingly there are about a dozen in
flying condition and another three or four being currently restored for
flight.

Sweet. It looks like a -G, since I don't think the -Fs had the
motorized rear turret, but both had the motorized chin turret.
I was under the impression that there was only one, maybe two B-17s
still flying, and that the last flying B-24 had augured in a couple of
years back, or vice versa. But maybe not.
