• There seems to be an uptick in Political comments in recent months. Those of us who are long time members of the site know that Political and Religious content has been banned for years. Nothing has changed. Please leave all political and religious comments out of the forums.

    If you recently joined the forums you were not presented with this restriction in the terms of service. This was due to a conversion error when we went from vBulletin to Xenforo. We have updated our terms of service to reflect these corrections.

    Please note any post refering to a politician will be considered political even if it is intended to be humor. Our experience is these topics have a way of dividing the forums and causing deep resentment among members. It is a poison to the community. We appreciate compliance with the rules.

Repaint for the A2A B-17G in the colors of B-17G-10-VE 42-40056 "Holy Terror III" of the 100th BG, 351st BS. On March 8, 1944, "Holy Terror III" was shot down about 15 miles East of Berlin after mechanical difficulties made it impossible to maintain formation. All 10 crew members became POWs till the end of the war. An eyewitness account of the actual day the aircraft was lost states that pilot (2nd) Lt. (Norman L.) Chapman feathered #1 engine, then unfeathered it near Dummer Lake at 1240 hours. He continued with the formation, although straggling, to the I.P. where he was attacked by three (3) E/A. Escorting Fighters went down and picked him up. The aircraft appeared to be under control when last seen.

Repaint by Will "dafraz48" Turner, based on the A2A paint kit, October 2014.
