B-17 Movie Released on DVD: 1000 Plane Raid

Tue Jan 10, 2012 9:53 am

One of the not-so-great B-17 movies but not all that bad either movies was officially released on DVD in December 2011. Filmed in 1968, it used three B-17s (Air Museum N3713G, Tallmantz N83525, Aircraft Specialties N17W) at Santa Maria, CA.

More information on the film here: http://www.aerovintage.com/1000.htm

No doubt available elsewhere, but definitely available from Amazon.com for $19.98: http://www.amazon.com/Thousand-Plane-Raid-Christopher-George/dp/B005TMXY48/ref=sr_1_1?s=movies-tv&ie=UTF8&qid=1326206078/ref=as_li_wdgt_js_ex?&linkCode=wsw&tag=wix-20

(Note to Scott: I took the liberty of adding the WIX tag to the Amazon link)

It did have probably the lowest buzz job passes by something that large, I don't think you could have gotten a footstool between the runway and the right wingtip.
