Posted: Wed Apr 10, 2013 10:46 am
Looking for information, as well as photos pertaining to Movie Memphis Belle, VB-17G 44-83546, as my father flew this aircraft on a number of occasions between May and September 1954 whilst stationed in Japan.
I know Belle has been leased by The Liberty Foundation, and I'm eternally grateful to the people there for allowing me the chance to fly aboard Belle last year during their stop in Baltimore, after a 20 year effort in researching and confirming that my father did fly this plane, I've decided to compile a reference on this plane for my two brothers.. including any info on what she did during her life as an aircraft of the USAF, a firebomber, etc., as well as any photos that anyone might share.
