Nice photos. Any information on the B-17 fuselage that's in the process of being painted? If so,...will the bomber eventually fly or be static?

Very nice collection. Things have change considerably since II was last able to be there. The Concorde was outside and the Vulcan dangling from the roof. And I don't remember them having any Soviet stuff then, must've been at least 10-12 years now...... Must go back .. one day.. bucket list item!
