72modeler Posted July 13, 2017 Share Posted July 13, 2017 I'm back! While researching photos of my favorite B-17F, Knockout Dropper, I found this site that has outstanding photos of the Memphis Belle and her restoration by the Air Force Museum. Can't wait to see her finished and on display! I hope you enjoy these.

JPuente54 Posted July 14, 2017 Share Posted July 14, 2017 Mike, is that a Beaufighter behind the "Memphis Belle" in the hanger that I see? These are some great photos of a famous icon of WW2. Thanks for this! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Junchan Posted July 14, 2017 Share Posted July 14, 2017 Thanks for sharing. I met her in Memphis long long time ago when she had been on duty as a gate guard at Memphis National Guard. Jun in Tokyo 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

She wasn't on display the last time I visited, but the PRXVI Mossie more than made up for it's absence!
