Sad deal

Rest In Peace To Everyone That Passed

very sad

Very Sad News.

Terrible news. I, too, flew on her many years ago.

Gone West to join their friends who have gone before.

God speed to her crew, team, and pax!

Rest in peace to all who flew their last flight.

God Speed is Right.

Wonderful photo Savannah - a great tribute photo.

Very sad, indeed.

Tail winds brothers. Prayers for all affected by this.

I haven’t quit crying since yesterday. Man, this is so hard.

Rest in Pease. I'm very sad ...

Such a horrible loss in so many ways. Can only imagine what the final moments were like for all involved. Heartbreaking.

sad sad day!!! RiP

God’s speed to all that perished and prayers for the families.

Very sad. Prayers for all involved. Wings of Freedom Tour has been here before and was scheduled to be in my hometown Oct 24-27.

So sad!! Praying for the families of those involved and the volunteers who worked on this workhorse!

Probably one of the best heavy bombers of its time as well as being well armed.

Terrible loss to the entire aviation community, made worse by those who reached out their hands and touched the face of God on the final flight.

Condolences to the families of the crew passengers and to flightaware community from this side of the pond. Sad day for us all.

God bless those who lost their lives and are now flying with the Angels, and prayers to those whose lives will be forever changed by what they survived..

I was at the 1987 Beaver County airshow when she went off the end of the runway due to pilot error/crosswinds. She became Beaver County, PA's adopted B-17 as she spent 3+ years being lovingly restored there. My late father & I watched and waited on a cold December morning in 1990 for her to take flight back to FL. We just recently toured her again on the Wings of Freedom tour last month in Butler,PA and I bought a tee shirt of the "909". RIP old bird & crew and thanks for all the memories.

On Golden Wings they fly in perpetuity....Fly High and Fly Free!

Eternal Godspeed to the crew that was lost and to all the people whose dedication keeps these magnificent birds airborne !!

VERY SAD TIMES FOR ALL

She was a beautiful aircraft. I was fortunate to have flown with her years ago and will always be one of my most cherished experiences. So sad. Deepest sympathy to the family of those who perished and healing thoughts to those who were injured.
