Just a quick addition:
This report
https://catalog.archives.gov/id/77574095?objectPage=6 called for a lookout for personnel of
two missing B-24's between Okinawa and Luzon.
No reference to other missing a/c.
Also see
https://catalog.archives.gov/id/4023...objectPage=848 in which a/c had been sent out from Clark to search for lost B-24's. Here no other types mentioned either.
Same report on p. 659, 727 and 803 say 'Air Intent' for 10 Sep 45 tasked 7th AF to provide 75 B-24's to ferry POWs to the Philippines.
