Yay! (Got a couple broken photo links on the B-17 page.)
I think I have a good guess as to where 44-83387 is going. Are the outer wings from the Alaska wreck, or CP-588?

If I understand the B-17 news, Ray has both inboards from 42-32076 (Shoo Shoo Baby) ??

Where have they been hidden for the past 40 years ??

I'll have to re-read what I wrote because I did not mean to imply that. One of the inboard wing sections from 43-32076 was owned by Mike Kellner/Desert Rat and was sold to Don Brooks for use on Liberty Belle. It is in the process of being rebuilt now for use. The other inboard wing section was scrapped after the restoration of 43-32076 was completed by the folks at Dover as it was not needed. That one of the two survived to make it into Mike Kellner's hands was pretty much an accident.

For the wing panel, it's the left panel held by the Liberty Foundation.

For the missing images, I reloaded the images and it seems to be working now. Let me know if you still can't see them.....
