Description
B17 Series
�Westward Ho�
As the East Anglia coast looms ahead and with the Norwich Cathedral spire as a homing beacon against the setting sun this B17 may just make a successful return to base. Struggling with the No.3 engine out and the port outer barely functioning the B17 is just maintaining height although many miles behind the rest of the bomber stream. Spitfire squadrons were regularly tasked to pick up the returning US bomber strike force acting as escort for the last leg of the sortie - and giving much needed moral support as the daylight fades. Another one home.
