[STARMAN 352ND]

I was very lucky to find this Corgi B-17 Memphis Belle 1:72 scale.
After seeing what everyone was saying about the best B-17 Corgi made.
I found one....With a little help from Gavin pointing me in the right direction where was for sell and it was the last one they had too.
Check out the pictures.

(Just curious - what did you have to pay for it?)

It's the only B-17 I have and it's one of my favorites in the collection I just wish I would have found one at Tuesday Morning instead of paying the premium I had to

Here's a questionf ro all those paint experts out there. How long did this 2 tone green camoflage scheme last before they went to the plain olive drab?

Well to be honest, never really. The B-17's were delivered in the standard O.D. over gray paint scheme. It was up to the C.O. of each unit to apply the field camo (if at all). Some units did not. It was also up to them on where to apply it. Col. Stanley Rey(not sure on the spelling) was the commander of the 91st BG, 324th Heavy Bombardment Squadron. It was his decision to take it off as well in late 1944. Some units used it right up until it was decided not to paint the aircraft in the factories at all.
