    I wonder how many more years or decades warbirds will be defined still as B-17s and such other similar flying machines of WWII in what was fortunately a relatively short lived though costly era. It’s as if they possess a romantic appeal and I suppose they do considering what was accomplished and how much was sacrificed by those (“the greatest generation”) who were operating what was rather crude equipment by comparison to that used in subsequent wars spanning 75 years hence.
