PACIFIC PROFILES, VOLUME 16: Allied Bombers--B17 Flying Fortress Series

Covers the B-17E/F series which served from their first appearance in Australia in the early weeks of the Pacific War until the final commander's Fortress was scrapped in late 1944. The Fortress served with 18 USAAF bombardment squadrons, and many, after being stripped down and modified, went on to serve as transports and commander's aircraft. Fully illustrated, some in color.
