Re: What is a Lib.23 ?
Consolidated B-24 Liberator, here is photo of it below, taken 30.05.1944
I am not certain if this was B-24D-1-CO 41-23659 "Blond Bomber II", force landed in Sicily early 1943, then Italian ferry reg I-RAIN (anyways you find "23" and "695" garbled in there.) http://www.flickr.com/photos/2455401...68778/sizes/o/ |

Re: What is a Lib.23 ?
Is it possible that this B-24 was used for the JU 287?
