Boeing B-17F 42-30197
 
Hello,

I'm looking for where and when Boeing B-17F 42-30197 was manufactured.
I have some parts of it laying in my basement so I know its fate...(it forcelanded at Kristianopel on 1944-04-11 and was scrapped).

Is there anyone who can help me with this question, which is slightly outside of my ordinary topic?

Best wishes/Håkan
