At a London airfield, exiled Dutch Queen Wilhelmina greets her daughter Juliana who returns from her safe house in Canada, VVIP enough to use Churchill's personal Liberator. Commando had a bed and a galley installed. It was converted with a PB4Y-2 Privateer single tailfin and a solid nose earlier in 1944. The aircraft was lost without trace in the Atlantic on 27 March 1945. Photo from: Nationaal Archief (Netherlands) This photo was added on 10 October 2020, and has since been viewed 938 times. |
