Pictorial History of B-17G "Yankee Lady"

Post by aerovin2 »

With B-17G Yankee Lady now safe and sound at Madras, I put together a pictorial history of the airplane beginning in 1945 that is now up on the aerovintage website.

Did Yankee Lady ever get a nose swap during its career? It looks like after its USCG use the cheek gun nose was replaced with one from a trainer that didn't go through the Cheyenne mods.
