Some good stuff on the link below (scroll to the bottom of the page for month by month PDF updates - Mighty Eighth AF Museum).

This is going to be a great looking airplane when it is done.

Its great to see a B-17 that has languished in storage for so long finally on display! I wonder if they are going to be able to obtain all the equipment needed to make the interior look like a wartime B-17.

It is so good to read the earlier updates and read that polishing of the NMF is going on. A truly accurate paint scheme representing City of Savannah will be a beautiful sight to behold. Keep up the good work!

Keep up the good work on the -17.

The photo of the nose of the City of Savannah brought up a strange question (at least in my mind). Was there any documentation of the signatures on 5 Grand? Did anyone have the forethought to photograph the plane and record the signatures in detail?

Just curious....
