Merry Christmas-Urbana B-17, back history notes-sorta
Merry Christmas! I thought I would share a few Pictures I have. The first are just a few images from a Wright Aeronautical Binder that have direct bearing on the Urbana B-17; or so I have been told. It is interesting to me that the engine being tested was originally planned for the B-52. The whole b...

Small world
