This is the second of Eagle Strike's new B-17 sheets. Like the previous sheet, this one has two Olive Drab over Neutral Grey B-17Gs from the 91st Bomb Group at Bassingborne, England. Again, the only kit available is the Monogram B-17G kit.

First up is 'Man O War II' from the 322nd Bomb Squadron. This aircraft has red on the fin, horizontal stabilizers and wing tips. It also has the 'greyed out' insignia that was seen on many aircraft.

The second option is from the 324th Bomb Squadron. 'Just Plain Lonesome' had insignia with a freshly painted outline. This aircraft has had the de-icing boots removed, leaving bare metal underneath.

The sheet provides both styles of insignia, but only one set of group 'triangle A' markings as there just isn't room on the sheet for two sets.
