Is that some kind of confusion camo???

That was the 392nd Bomb Group's formation assembly aircraft. Assembly aircraft were tired bombers that were deemed no longer fit for combat, but still airworthy. They were given interesting and often very bright paint schemes to make them easy to see. The assembly aircraft would take off first and circle around the airbase and the strike aircraft would take off and join the assembly aircraft and get into formation. Once the formation was assembled, the assembly aircraft would return to base.

A B-24D has been requested some time ago and would be great for 1942-43 campaigns in Western Europe, the Mediterranean and Pacific theaters.
