    Perhaps an explanation is needed here. This is not a Vega but an Altair built after the single-engine production had already stopped, by a company known as Vega Co. Of course Robert Reedy knew all this, but the casual browser of SDASM site just might be a bit puzzled. It was given the name 'Flying Test Stand' and either it was not yet painted when the photo was taken or the name was carried only in spirit.... Stig

    Amazing snap shot of a B-17G from 412BS, 95BG after receiving some battle damage over Hannover on 28 March 1945 and is listed as making a safety landing at Achiet, France on its return flight. With Achiet being Carl's home base at the time, we can see the records are very accurate! Stig

    Alan Is it possible to read the USAAF serial number seen under the two small windows on this B-17G? Stig

    This Boeing B-17G appears to be the same aircraft (B-17G-60-VE, USAAF Ser. No. 44-8331):
