Hang The Expense was the name of the B-17 flown by Big Frank Valesh in the 100th BG in WW2.He was one of the luckiest pilots during the war.He went through 7 B-17s to complete 35 missions not all lost to enemy action.Childhood hero of mine and still is.I manufacture replacement parts for B-17s and am part of a team restoring 2 B-17s here in Georgia.
Great back story on your handle.
I’ve been in love with the B-17 since I was a kid. Don’t know why, but to me, she’s the most magnificent bird that’s ever flown.
