Landing Gear Cylinder
Part of the album: B-17 Crash Site Hike
The cylinder that extends the landing gear was pretty massive. I wouldn't have guessed that the landing gear needed that long of a cylinder to get the landing gear fully out. I guess the cylinder rod must be made out of stainless steel (or some other non-corrosive material) for it to still be shiny after all of these years.
