Thats the B-17 that belonged to the late David Tallichet (100th BG Veteran based at Thorpe Abbotts, Norfolk in WWII) which he flew over to England in 1989 to participate in the David Putnam remake of the WWII Movie - Memphis Belle.

 

Its currently on least to The Liberty Foundation to act as a stop-gap until they get their own B-17(s) airworthy, after last years devastating engine fire, which almost destroyed their flagship B-17 'Liberty Belle', when it burnt out after an emergency landing.

 

Great to see that they are offering rides again and good to know the aircraft looks in great shape.

 

Thanks for posting!
