Logical brings Dreamsicle in, unaware that the tail wheel is inoperative until ebola calls up from the ball turret that it’s not down. Ebola evacuates the ball turret, and the crew prepares for a tail dragging landing. Sure enough, they aren’t disappointed as Dreamsicle comes in, trailing sparks as logical struggles to keep the plane from swerving. As Dreamsicle slows, logical politely steers off the tarmac to clear the runway for other B-17s. Dreamsicle is easily repairable, and will be ready to roll when called upon again.
