Resurrecting this old and ancient thread because....just because. If a mod wants to move it, its OK by me. This site contains an interactive map of B-17 crash sites around the world.

​

Zoom in and the mess become more readable.

​

Click on an aircraft icon...

​

....and up pops a panel on the left, which you click on and takes you to another section of the site which describes the bomber and information about the loss with MACR numbers

​

This is for this specific B-17, "Georgia Rebel II" 42-38061 / Georgia Rebel II | B-17 Bomber Flying Fortress – The Queen Of The Skies I don't know how complete the losses are of how much info is include with each loss. This is the map part of the site...Map of B-17 crash sites | B-17 Bomber Flying Fortress – The Queen Of The Skies and this is the homepage...B-17 Bomber Flying Fortress – The Queen Of The Skies
