A "Pathfinder" (radar equipped) B-17G, serial 44-8135, attached to the 324th Bomb Squadron, 91st BG, displaying flak damage received on 6 November 1944.

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

The XB-38 (converted B-17E) flew in 1943-- crashed after an engine fire less than a month later.
