how fast can a B-17 make a 180 degrees turn

Hello

I have no B-17 nor Combat Flight Simulator to find out myself, but I am interested to learn about the radius and duration of a 180 degrees turn of a bomb loaded B-17 at an average speed over enemy territory (presuming that the pilot unlikely wanted to lower his speed for obvious reasons).

This data will enable me to check the memories of a (then) young eyewitness. Any help is much appreciated!

All the best, Marcel
