Re: American aircraft photos 8 - 12

Hi Ed. Found that B-29 Photo 12.
This is 42-24823 483BS / 505BG; she had various names, "NCB 27th Spec./ Delivers the Goods" also "Dangerous Lady" on left side with a young lady. Base was N. Field Tinian. There was a B-29 "27th NCB Special / Eh High Doc" with different artwork (Bugs Bunny) which was probably a different aircraft in the Wing, but same Seabees unit.

N.C.B. = a tribute to the Naval Construction Battalions (Seabees) who built their airfields. She survived the war. Tail designator was Circle "W" with green tip.
Her pre-April tail marking was " K Triangle 25" as in another photo.


Regards
Nick
