Re: Bombers on the Wing

Wow, the best for last....I'm not sure I've ever seen quite that camo pattern/color as on that B-29 in post #101....or is it just a weird glare?

Re: Bombers on the Wing

It is unusual camo, makes that B29 look like a B17!!! Only joking, I would guess it is the way the light is catching it.

Re: Bombers on the Wing

It is a B-17, I swapped photos in shuffle. I'll have to find that B-29. I probably have it in a tank thread somewhere.

B-17s are by far my favorite and always will be.
