Jay Leno of the Tonight show and Jay Leno’s Garage takes You inside the B-24 & B-17 Bombers

A mostly excellent piece on the B-24 courtesy of Jay Leno and Bob Collings of the Collings Foundation. The Collings Foundation has one of two airworthy Liberators in the world. Theirs is the only one in combat bomber configuration.

The Youtube video above is short and gives a brief sense of flying in a B-24 Liberator like the one that Ed flew in WW2.

Here is a nice film made while Ford was building B-24sat Willow Run in Michigan

This video from Jay Leno shows the Boeing B-17 Flying Fortress which was the other “big” bomber for the Americans in the European theatre. More about it here. There are about a half dozen to a dozen of these still flying including one owned by the Willow Run Yankee Air Force.
