Perhaps a nitpick, but I don't think you could consider those B-17s "drones" - they were manned for takeoff, the pilots then bailed out and the aircraft remotely controlled to the target.
If those B-17s are considered drones, then there was a DC-9 that was operated that way for a controlled crash test...
