The one with the red painted tail is most unusual - these red painted stabilizers were used by the 1st combat wing (1st air division) only. 1st CW consisted of 91st, 391st and 398th BGs (Group letters in triangle on tail A, L and W). Perhaps it was a bird which was drafted from 1st CW to the 379th BG.
Fly! could you send these skins to me? Can save them here as PNG-files only, don't know how to convert to bmp. My email is cheruskerarmin@freenet.de.
THX
Mantock, what exactly are you looking for? A skin of an individual B17 or generics? F or G type? Olive drab (OD), natural metal finish (NMF) or the late NMF with highvisible markings (HiVis)? There are very few individuals (fully marked) skinned so far but there are some nice generics (stars bars and bomb group markings only) markings. State what you want and i possibly can help.
Best wishes

A B-17 G. a generic one would by fine, thx. umm, and as to OD, NMF, and HiVis,, I would like to get one of the silver bare metal ones. WIhout paint, but i dont really mind if it has paint or not. thx 4 your help guys!
Vpmedia and Badger, I will check out your links, thx for posting!
the reason Im interested in this is coz my grandad was a 379th B-17G captain, but I dont know what plane he flew or any more specific info than that really, but thx for all your help guys, its given me some good stuff to begin with.

O. k., i will get some generics together for a skinpack - no mod skins! Stock B17Gs only. If you got an email for me i can send them directly to you.
Fly! THX a lot for the skins.
