    A few more photos from Duxford at the time of Memphis Belle.
    1 is P-51D N314BG
    2 and 3 It was quite difficult at times keeping track of which aircraft was painted as which as they swapped film serials and names quite regulary.The first is of the IGN B-17 F-BEEA and the second is of G-BEDF both painted as 124292’Baby Ruth’.Subtle differences such as aerials,anti-collision lights,windows and state of paint-work show they are different aircraft.
    4 The arrival back of a formation on a run and break into the circuit
    5 The flight line of B17s
