Coming up on ten years. We have not forgotten.

@bigdaus11 -- Yes, the "navalized" version of the B-24, the PB4Y2 Privateer. Used as a sub hunter/ patrol bomber by the US Navy in WW 2 & Korea. It was stretched in length a bit, some rearranging of gun turrets, but at it's heart basically it was a Liberator, or at least it's sibling.

@sonorachainsgang modified b-24?
-
How many did they have in service? I recall seeing one over my house when I lived in SD back around 99. Thought it was a B-24 until the tail I saw the tail.
-
Thank you for posting this video. My Dad worked on PB4Y-2s in the Navy during World War II. It is fun to watch video of these birds flying. I still have my Dad's maintenance manuals for the aircraft.

Never seen a B-24 airframe with a conventional tail, had too look it up: Consolidated P4Y2. Interesting!

WOW A real airtanker song-very rare! and in the spirit of Oscar Brand aviation balladeer. Great Job Black Irish band! I remember working with 123 in Battle Mt. Nev. around 1997/8?, sunlight glistening off those old wings as she popped, snorted and dripped along over the sage. Unforgettable.

if you talk about one of the beauties with wings,i understand she,s fallen from the sky,rip 123,and her crew!RESPECT!!!
-
Metal fatigue was the cause.
The left wing flexed and broke on a rivet line like a zipper.
A lot of these older aircraft are becoming unsafe to fly.
-
And RIP 123 and her brave crew
