Biggest problem with the B-29 was engine heat in the third row of pistons. The Russians got that fixed when they reverse engineered a B-29. The B-17 was a tough bit-- of a bomber that could take some brutal pounding but the bomb load was a little on the small side. The B-24 was bigger and faster and carry more but I have read that a few lucky hits would take it out. Lancaster is a very lovely looking plane but the Brits left something out.

Trouble is there is only ONE still alive and it is in Dayton, Ohio never to fly again. What a He--- of a big plane!! Neat to see a B-52 from the front, They almost look like some kind of supper size glidder comming at you. There have been so many planes I would love to have seen. Saw a Mustang take off at FULL power ---WOW WOW that was cool. Same with a corsair. Reading air show years ago.
