A-26C 44-35918 painted as B-26B 44-34287 Versatile Lady, a night intruder aircraft in the Korean War. At starboard is a huge squadron badge instead of the nose art, painted here in a General Audiences version. This airframe actually ended active USAF service in 1957, had several civil US, Costa Rican and Honduran registrations and was even with the Honduran air force. Arrived here as N2781G in jungle camo, later completely resprayed. This photo is copyright © Erik Sleutelberg, and may not be used or published in any way without permission.
