Janson Media’s best-selling DVD, B-17: Flying Legend, earned a strong recommendation recently from Educational Media Reviews Online. “Well done,” said EMRO. “Fortress Films [the producer] has done a real service to all those interested in the history and continued existence of the Flying Fortress. [The film] provides a vivid picture of the air war over Europe and has great educational value.”
“This DVD aims to increase appreciation for the B-17 (the Flying Fortress). In particular, the producers hope to increase the number of flying B-17s, and generate interest in the 13 that currently fly… Recommended for high school and college libraries supporting classes that cover World War II.” Read EMRO’s entire review here.
