Since I played a computer game, where you could be a gunner of a B-17, I
would be interested in a ride in the ventral ball turret, but that's probably
no option, is it ?

It wasn't on this ride, and almost certainly never would be due to liability concerns. Access to the tailgun position was mechanically blocked off. If you Knew Somebody, you might be able to get in one of those, but for the purely tourist thing... I highly doubt it.

Wonderful pics! Though I am not a lover of the B-17, this must have been quite a ride!
