Seven people have been killed after a WWII-era bomber plane crashed following problems on take-off.
The plane struggled to get into the air and crashed into a maintenance shed at Bradley International Aiport, Connecticut, as it attempted to land.
The B-17 bomber, which was carrying 10 passengers and three crew members, crashed at around 10am local time.

It is a difficult plane to land with a rear tail tire ....
according to those I knew who are familiar with that aircraft
Sad but to me the B17 is still the coolest plane ever made
What a shame to loose one of the last dozen flyable B-17's. The flying fortress bristling with its machineguns to help defeat the Nazi's.
Probably en route to North Korea with an A bomb.
