Greetings all and one tien for the Friday Night Flyby. Tonight we have the Consolidated B-24 Liberator for your viewing pleasure. As your humble poster did last week this wqill be a two part post. Original color pics from WW-II tonight with some restored B-24 color pics for the Saturday Sortie. On with the pics.

Judging from the large US flags painted on this early B-24 I am guessing that this pic was taken before 1942.

A formation of B-24s at a training unit.

A trio of Mighty Eigth Airforce B-24s over England I believe.

Another formation of Liberators.

A US Navy PB4Y on patrol.

A good example of good ol American ingenuity. The crew of this B-24 used thier parachutes as drag chutes when they discovered that the brakes were out on thier B-24.

Tomorrow night more Libs. Y'all have a great night.

Regards
