B-17 Identification after crash
Hi there,
this is my first post here and I have just one question. I am working a long time looking after plane crashes in the region around Magdeburg (Germany), German and Allied. Now I have received a photo of a B-17 Wreck, whose identification is difficult. Nothing is known of this photo - no date, no place, no markings to see, but must be in the vicinity of Magdeburg. Here you can see the rear fuselage floor with the cutout for the ball turret and the level/stair for the radio room. Oddly enough, the cutout for the ball turret is closed, but why? Also interesting is the tube on the right side - that looks like a toilet - what is this? can anyone identify the version of this wreck? B-17 x-xxx? Thank you very much Greetings from Germany Andreas |
