Famous weapons in WW2

[Scud]

Pretty neat. I heard they were really hard to fly, unlike the B17 which practically flew themselves. I also remember reading somewhere that there are only three still flying. Is that true?

There was a documentary a long time ago about trying to restore a Liberator that had crashed landed on the ice in northern Alaska (I think). These guys went up there and found it, restored it to flying condition, new wiring, engine overhauls, the works. Then they go to take off, there's a fire and the whole thing burns up. Pretty sad.
