I'm trying to ID - at least to plane-in-group number - this aircraft which I suspect has been phtographed about 5 times during this mission. IF wrong, than there are 2 almost identical aircraft which were photographed around the same time.

Can someone help me?

There is also ANOTHER photo of this aicraft, across the tops of 2 pages in Fortress In The Sky, if memory serves. Can someone submit this photo to help this research project?

Gratefully,

What I MEANT as the title was: "Is this "60/2B" or "60/7B"?

Its a shame that Dik Sheoherd can't join in this thread, his knowledge of the B-17 is sorely missed

Once burned, twice shy.

Dan K.s images that he is referring to.

It really must have been something to fly one of these back then. Big Iron magestic bird.
