Be interesting to have a definitive idea of what it is though...

I doubt its off a B29.
The only way we can determine what it came off of is too look closely at the skin rivit patterns and see if it matches an allied wing.

I still reckon its from a B-25. Maybe we should place bets..?

As stated - it's part number sequence matches what was put out by North American.

I think that everything that the person knows has been posted. I really don't think there is anymore there to say.

Hey folks, utterly fascinating stuff. I am agreeing with Cienfuegos re: a tail plane section of a bomber of some sort.
Keep us updated Wrath1, and a very interesting insight, very much appreciated.

I've read through all 11 pages of this thread and have to say I really enjoy the intrigue that's developed here, plus all of Wrath1's fantastic photos.
I look forward to more pix of the wing and everyone here chipping in to help solve the mystery. 8)

Kid - read the whole post - we identified the part numbers and even some of the rivet heads on the wing - If it was Japanese it probably would of corroded away years ago...
Oh boy, again have you gone through and read the thread from beginning to end? Come on kid!
The guy is 11 years old, really just a kid.

As FBJ said it like P38 Pilot on crack!

P38 Pilot was "teachable", thus tolerated.
I wonder what happened to him?
I was thinking the same thing actually.

Vertical stabilizer off a B-24? Trying to think of other aircraft with a near-vertical tailfin... Hmmm...
