Good question…Memphis Belle flew an unprecedented 25 missions WWII
over Germany…perhaps Nazi fighter planes shot down…

My only guess…never thought to ask…

Ooops on pix of 3X That’s All Brother was a message to Hitler !!

Thanks for these pictures. My father-in-law was a flight engineer on a B-24J Liberator in the Pacific during the war. He made it all the way to Tokyo. I hadn’t thought of him lately.

Ooooh Elk…Pierre Sprey former F-16 pilot dissed the F 35 to congress
pointed out how a 4th gen F-16 wiped the sky with the F35…he failed to
mention that the F 35 was block 1 a new born baby and obc limited the
the g forces …

Yet come a year or so later 2017 Red Flag excercise the F 35s went up against
the best 4th gen F-16s, F15s with AWACS you name it and came out with a 20:1 kill ratio…

It is an amazing thing the F-16 has to go into after burner just to keep up with the
F 35 while the F 35 is not even super cruising…

The F 35’s avionics outclass the latest greatest Super Hornet’s
avionics

F 35 may be stubby looking…but it is no slouch…

Sorry just could not let that get by…

Appreciate ya still Elk…

Best wishes
