9th Aviation Meeting<\/strong><\/p>\n

Boeing B-17 G Candie, December 26, 1944. 2019.<\/strong><\/p>\n

On January 12, 2019, on the occasion of the 73 anniversary of the emergency landing of the Boeing B-17 "Candie" bomber at Kliny Housing Estate in Krakow near Fort No. 52, a meeting was held at the Kliny Culture Club at ul. bishop Albin Ma\u0142ysiak 1. These are the hospitable thresholds of the parish of Saint Rafa\u0142 Kalinowski.<\/p>\n

It was the 9th meeting in this series. The driving force of the whole undertaking are the gentlemen: historian Dr. Krzysztof Wielgus and historian Robert Springwald.<\/p>\n

The ceremonial meeting began with Holy Mass in the Church of Saint Rafa\u0142 Kalinowski at 18:30.<\/p>\n

At 19:30 a concert of the Krakow Garrison Orchestra took place.<\/p>\n

The history of the Boeing B-17 G No. Y-44-6337 "Candie" aircraft, which landed near Fort 52 in Borek Fa\u0142\u0119cki (currently Osiedle Kliny) is already extensively described in the previous chapter.<\/p>\n

Currently (2019) Fort 52 is undergoing revitalization works and a cultural center and park will be built here. One of the elements in the park will be a park installation depicting the silhouette of the "Candie" aircraft.<\/p>\n
