The Boeing B-17 Flying Fortress is a four-engined heavy bomber developed in the 1930s for the United States Army Air Corps (USAAC). Fast and high-flying for a bomber of its era, the B-17 was used primarily in the European Theater of Operations and dropped more bombs than any other aircraft during World War II.

    Thanks for posting.

    The pilot was Joe Carter, and the plane was called Carter’s Little Pills, in a pun on the remedy of that name.
