This texture represents "Our Gal Sal" from the 100th BG, the "Bloody Hundreth". The group received this appellation follwing the brutal losses it suffered during the fall of 1943. Some wags say that this is the reason the group used the color black for the group tail markings later in the war.
"Our Gal Sal" On March 6, 1944, over the town of Haseleunne, the Bloody Hundredth was virtually decimated. 'Our Gal Sal,' piloted by Bob Shoens, was the only B17 to return to Thorpe Abbotts in England. The plane eventually finished the war with over 100 missions.

File Description:
This is a repaint only for the Wings of Power Boeing B-17F/G Flying Fortress, in the markings of the Liberty Foundation's B-17G "Liberty Belle," N390TH. This aircraft was utilized by the Pratt & Whitney company after WWII as a T34 & T64 turboprop engine test bed, being modified to carry the 5th engine in the nose. Eventually the aircraft made its way to Tom Reilly's Vintage Aircraft where it was completely restored back to WWII configuration, requiring, among other things, the re-positioning of the cockpit to its original position. Owned by Dan Brooks/The Liberty Foundation, the aircraft can be seen at many airshows during the summer throughout the U.S.

| Boeing B-17G "Sentimental Journey" N9323Z |
|
File Description:
This is a repaint only for the FSX Wings of Power II Boeing B-17G Flying Fortress, in the markings of the CAF Arizona Wing's B-17G "Sentimental Journey," N9323Z. "Sentimental Journey" rolled off the Douglas assembly line in late 1944, and was accepted by the Army Air Corp on March 13, 1945. Being delivered too late to serve in the European theater, the aircraft was assigned to the Pacific theater for the duration of the war. The aircraft served in the USAF until 1959 when it was put into storage. Within a few months the aircraft was acquired by the Aero Union Corporation of Chico, California and flew thousands of sorties against forest fires as a converted tanker. In 1978 the aircraft was donated to the newly founded Arizona Wing of the Commemorative Air Force, and after a local contest the aircraft was named "Sentimental Journey." The decision was made to use the most famous pinup picture of WWII for the nose art, which of course was that of Betty Grable's most tantalizing. Over the years the aircraft has been brought back to its WWII configuration, complete with all turrets, crew positions, bombay, and markings of the 457th Bomb Group. The aircraft makes on average each year an amazing 60 airshow stops nation wide.
