B-24 Liberator warmup & TakeOff

The Last touring B-24 Liberator Bomber Departs Broomfield,CO for Salina, Kansas on the WINGS OF FREEDOM TOUR 2012 for more information please see http://www.collingsfoundation.org/cf_... The Collings Foundation's B-24J is the only restored flying B-24J in the world. Initially, restored it in 1989, honored the 15th A.F. in Italy with the selection of the ALL AMERICAN-a very distinguished A/C with a record of having shot down 14 enemy fighters on a single mission (only two B-24's came back out of a squadron of 19). Then we selected the DRAGON & HIS TAIL, probably WWII's most extensive nose art, to honor and represent the WWII veterans who served in the Pacific. Now, it's time to honor the 8th Air Force and all who served in England and in the ETO. We have selected "WITCHCRAFT", a B-24 assigned to the 467BG, 790BS that compiled an amazing record of 130 combat missions. WITCHCRAFT is an olive drab aircraft, with red and white nose bowls, red and white rudders, 130 bomb markings and a cartoonish witch flying a machine gun as nose art. All the names of our Dedicated Crew, Lead Crew, Plane Sponsors and DFC Members will be proudly displayed on the co-pilot's side of the aircraft. Honor Crew and aircraft names will continue to be on the bomb bay doors. We're very pleased that we have been able to keep this B-24J flying and look forward to continuing to honor our American Veterans. America's only flying B-24J continues soaring through its native skies as part of the annual Wings of Freedom Tour with its sister ship, the B-17 Flying Fortress. A product of a multi-million dollar restoration, the B-24 stands testiment to the strength of the 1940's engineering that built it and helped it survive through many years of hardship.
