    Hi, I'm an admin for a group called TOUR OF DUTY, and we'd love to have this added to the group!

    the info detailed in the 'about this photo' section is vastly different from the above description "The bomber B-24J-170-CO Liberator number 44-40601 known as 'Burma' of the 424th Bomb Squadron, 307th Bomb Group, 13th Air Force, overshot the runway at Connor Park Airfield, Rockhampton on 2 April 1945 and ended up in Lion Creek. Five crewmen were injured in the crash."

  • TVL1970 said:
    This particular aircraft is a photo reconnaissance variant of the Lockheed P-38 Lightning, a Lockheed F-4 Lightning (USAAF Ser. no. 41-2217, c/n 222-5435). Note the covered gun ports and large camera window on the port side of the nose behind the number "17." As per the Joe Baugher site, its disposition is listed as, "salvaged in Australia Sep 26, 1944." See: www.joebaugher.com/usaf_serials/1941_1.html www.joebaugher.com/usaf_fighters/p38_9.html
