Summary

edit
Description
English: c/n 6943.

Built in 1944 with the US military serial 41-39230. Assigned to the 410th Bomb Group as a target marker and began combat duties in early 1945. She was damaged by night-fighters and still carries a few patches as a result. Re-designated as a B-26B in 1948, she was sold off in 1958 and became N9682C on the US civil register. From 1969 she flew with D&D Aero Spraying as tanker #105, but in 1979 she was involved in smuggling operations and was seized by the Drug Enforcement Agency. She was sold at auction in 1980 and became part of the Confederate/Commemorative Air Force who still operate her today. She originally flew as “Panhandle’s Pride”, later changing to “Vegas Vixen” and now finally as “Lady Liberty”. She is seen taking off to display at the Commemorative Air Force’s 2019 ‘Wings Over Dallas’ WWII Airshow. Dallas Executive Airport, Redbird, Dallas, Texas.
