Late comment from me as well. Excellent series! Never seen a B17 in the flesh - must have been cool.
There's a restored Lancaster based in Hamilton (30 miles west) that makes regular fly-overs above Toronto. Had the chance to actually get on it once (not flying, sadly). First thing that struck me is how ~not big~ it is by modern jumbo jet standards. And even more, how cramped the crew areas are. Can't imagine what those kids went through every night... But I digress. Wonderful photos, all.

Nice composition, nice colors, and the shutter speed is just right to freeze the action without freezing the props.
