I like the idea, wish some manufacturers would mak a realistic flatcar with fighter loads. This is from marklin set with 3 fighters and separate wing flatcars.
Bob,
My father left training in Kearney, Nebraska with 35 planes, a crew of ten per plane, plus support personnel, and flew to England. I presume, without knowing that they refueled in Iceland. I suspect the planes were also flown to Kearney first after their manufacture. (I never even thought about the "B" reference in "B-17", until much later -- as TIMDUDE posts later, properly a reference, "Bomber" and, not to the manufacturer Boeing.)
Can you elaborate about your Martin post, above?
