Corgi Classics - Aviation Archive |
Sentimental Journey came off the Douglas assembly line in late 1944 and served in the Pacific. After the war, it was transferred to Elgin Field Florida for service as an air-sea rescue craft and in 1959 went into military storage at Davis-Monthan Air Base in Tucson Arizona. It was then sold to a California corporation for service as a borate bomber, flying thousands of sorties against forest fires throughout the country. In January 1978 at the formation of the Arizona Wing of the Confederate Air Force, the announcement was made of the donation of B-17G #N9323Z to the Confederate Air Force for assignment to the Arizona Wing. It was then disassembled, and painstakingly restored to its original World War II configuration. View other product and find out more about Corgi Classics and Aircraft.
