Update on the B-17s at Madras (Erickson)

Thu Jun 05, 2025 10:18 pm

I just added a post that updates the work underway at the Erickson Aircraft Collection facility at Madras, Oregon, particularly the heavy maintenance underway on the ex-Thunderbird 44-85718, that will soon enough fly as We The People with the Mid America Flight Museum at Mt. Pleasant, Texas.

Thanks Scott, those spar photos just show how mine boggling the spars are. What a project. Great info.
