    Liberty belle

    Liberty belle, a B17 based in the USA has crashed. All got out ok .
    This plane was fully restored and owned by a don Brooke who's father flew in the original liberty belle as a tail gunner , and in2008 don flew it to England and flew over his dads old base at framlingham in Suffolk.. Imagine how the owner feels to see it go up in flames , all that history lost.. Such a shame..
    Live to regret ..or regret to live.

        What a shame, a piece of history gone.
        Heres footage of it in flight and a tour of it inside.

          No doubt it will be restored again and be flying a few years from now

            Yeah, and I bet a pair of new wings are cheaper than Escort ones
