This is the place where the majority of the warbird (aircraft that have survived military service) discussions will take place. Specialized forums may be added in the new future

Hello, I was hoping that some of the experts here could help an aquaintance of mine. His grandfather flew B-17's in World War II and he would like to build a model of one of his grandfathers airplanes. Does anyone have any pictures of either of these airplanes that they'd be willing to share?
B17G #43-38672
B17G #43-39127
Or if anyone can point me in a direction to do the research that'd be most appreciated.
Thank you for your help,
Arty

could you please provide unit (bomb group & squadron) ? this makes searching in several hundred photographs somewhat easier - and the name could help, too.
Thanks & best regards
Martin
