Liberator

Does anyone know a website from which I might download a non-copyright photograph of a Liberator for use in a small exhibition which I am setting up in relation to the men whose names are recorded on my local War Memorial. I would be particularly interested in a Liberator similar to those flown by 160 Squadron, off Ceylon, in 1944. The man in question was killed in a training accident over the sea off Ceylon.

The exhibition in question is non-profit making, although I anticipate that there may be an invitation to those attending to make a modest contribution to local church funds.

Merlin and Dan – thanks for your help. These are just what I am looking for.

My exhibition focuses mainly on the First World War men, partly because I have not got around to doing much research on the Second World War men and partly because I am concerned that too much detail re the Second World War men might upset close relatives still living in the village. However, this sort of picture is just what I was looking for.

Thanks again.

Taken at Duxford in 1975. Don’t know if it meets your spec.

Not RAF but one from my own collection of B24 stuff. I got it from a former B24 Pilot. Taken stateside during training before heading off to the 454th BG in Italy. No problem using from this end.
