So that's where my missing chainlink fencepost caps went! Give 'em back, Kaiser Willy! Or I'll send Black Jack to teach you some manners!

I have no info on this plane, other than its an early model B17. Maybe a "C"? Note the single 30 cal machine gun in the nose.

That's a Y1B-17 of the 20th BS, 2nd BG shot during the May 1938 GHQAF Antiaircraft Maneuvers. The Army shot color MoPic of this bird, but I've never found a copy. There's a color four-view in Air Force Colors Vol 1, page 69.

Cheers,


Dana

Same. First time someone posts an obscure plane I know and I'm beaten to the post.

Worse. I guessed B-17A. But I bow to the Master.

I am a sucker for shark tails.
It's almost as beautiful as a B-17B.

Three more and he's an enemy ace! I know at least two VN era Huey drivers who became enemy aces.
