(freaked me out when you flipped to jets!-) I would love to see B-17 in person...what did it sound like? I think I have a video of Fuddy Duddy starting up at Chino's airshow in May. I was standing less than 100 feet from her when she started up. I'll see if I can find it and I'll upload it to YouTube http://www.vg-photo.com/wallpaper/page2/1280x1024/b17_EVG_2861.jpg Wheels _________________________ Cheers Wheelsup_cavu Mission4Today \| Get RoF Templates @ Combat-Asylum Planes of Fame Air Museum \| March Field Air Museum \| Palm Springs Air Museum

In the second in flight pic of the PBY Catalina, the wing pontoons seem to have disappeared. Any explanation for that? _________________________ Pat Tillman (1976-2004): 4 years Arizona State University, graduated with high honors. 5 seasons National Football League player, Arizona Cardinals.

On the first shot they are deployed, and on the second shot they are retracted at the wing tip.

A good video of a PBY taking off from Duxford at the 2008 airshow. It's my understanding that the wingtip floats were only deployed for landing on the water for stability.
