Now for a couple of B-17s. One is an F model, for which the rather elderly Revell kit is the recommended choice. For the G, you'll want the Monogram version. Actually, both are probably boxed by Revell as they are the same company now. Despite their age, they are quite nice kits.

The B-17F is with the 63 BS/43 BG operating in the Pacific during 1942. This one is OD over light grey and typical of early Pacific war B-17s. The artwork is on the right side and consists of a Disney Pluto.

The G model is 'Sleepy Time Gal' from the 353 BS/301 BG operating out of Italy. Aside from the nose art, this is pretty normal late war B-17G in unpainted metal with OD anti-glare panels.

The sheet includes insignia and markings for both aircraft.
