Boeing B-17 Flying Fortress (G-BEDF)
Based at Duxford, Memphis Belle/Sally B, flying fortress. The only airworthy B-17 in europe.
Comments
A very nice close-up view of G-BEDF, showing the starboard side "Memphis Belle" nose art.
This B-17 was originally assigned USAAF s/n 44-85784, as a Lockheed-Vega built B-17G-105-VE with c/n 8693, according to Joe Baugher's published information.
Mr. Baugher further provides this additional history:
"B-17G built by Lockheed-Vega Airplane Company as part of pooled production... converted to EB-17G and to ETB-17G. Sold to Institut Geographique National of France as F-BGSR. Sold to American users as N17TE but never taken to USA. Moved to Britain and re-registered as G-BEDF. Currently flying as *Sally B* with B-17 Preservation Ltd of Duxford with false tail number 124485 (Memphis Belle). Used in remake of film *Memphis Belle*".
