Boeing B-17 Flying Fortress



 by X_hunter33 and Seames39











[WARNING]
THE PLANE USES ONE OF THE 1.8 FEATURES. HOWEVER, THESE ARE ONLY MINOR EXTERIOR AESTHETIC DETAILS AND CAN BE IGNORED. IT IS 1.7 COMPATIBLE AND 1.8 ISNT REQUIRED BUT IF REVERTED BACK TO 1.7 THE ITEM FRAMES WILL POP OUT AND BREAK.







True symbolism of the american bombing campaign in both Europe and Pacific theaters during WWII. Along with the P-51, it is one of the most iconic aircrafts of WWII.




The main airframe was taken from Angry's WWII Forces Pack with his full approval and collaboration but so heavily modified it barely looks like the old one now. We combined our WWII knowledge and passion for such era and vehicles to make the ultimate, and to scale, Boeing B-17 Flying Fortress.

With fully recreated interior (to an extent), it has all the rooms a classic B-17 would have as well as its 13 .50 cal. machine guns.

This is skinned from the B-17G Liberty Belle, a commemorative aircraft. Yes, it uses custom textures but they all are default painted blocks and still look fairly similar with the use of default texture pack. No, this does not require the use of the texture pack as they are directly included in the world save. They will automatically load when playing this map.



No schematic since MCEdit doesnt want to rotate selections when 1.8 item frames are included.



THANKS TO AEQUOTIS FOR THE AMAZING RENDER

Thanks though the base plane isnt mine, i modified Seames39's B-17 to my liking with his approval. However i changed so many things that im pretty confident i can claim at least half of it ;P
