That’s fantastic, pity the serial’s hidden.
Well it is quite remarkable to think that that plane ended up near my Gran’s house!
I suppose any newspaper pictures of the plane are long lost…if there were any, they probably would’ve wanted to hush it up

Incidentally has anyone been able to find anything further?

Breakthrough, acccording to My Grandad, after consulting with her It was Liberator and it crashed by Salcombe Road, Malborough, In July ’44, I expect this will help clear the waters

Well I’m going on the assumption it is a B17 that may have been returning from a mission and was forced to come down, She said it was likely based at an airfield in Devon, I’ll try and see if I can get the exact location of the crash, but I can’t imagine many B 17s crashed in similar circumstances on roads in Devon

Can you clarify if you mean period or replica?

Moggy

Sorry, I am looking more for replicas, I know the period stuff is very expensive naturally.

I haven’t yet received a reply, I really need to get word to the committee as soon as I can.
