On the 13-8-1947 I along with RAF 617 Squadron (Dambusters) visited March Field,(16 Lincoln Bombers)and we really enjoyed our stay, our Group Captain Thomson affixed a pair of wings to the Wall of Flyers at the Mission Inn. I am just concluding the history of this Goodwill Tour to the USA/Canada,July/Sept.1947 purely to add to the Squadron Archives, and I have no input whatsoever from the USA.
Can anyone help me please? any recollections/news clippings/photographs, particularly of the Wings on the Mission Inn Wall of Flyers.
I would be forever indebted to you.
Sincerely
Bob Hornby (retired) Civil & Military

I served in the 320th and 22nd Bomb Wings from 1958 to 1962. I was 22nd A&E when discharged mid 1962. I have been looking for Phil O'Donnell and Paul Miller for years with no luck. I think Phil went back to Northeast and Paul and Elaine went to Oregon. Either one, email me.

Hello,this is a great site and I really enjoy it.I have a question that I hope you can answer for me.I was a redeye missle gunner when on active duty in the U.S Army and had extensive aircraft and marking reconition training.My question is about the Mig 23 Flogger H that you have posted.If I remember right the marking is from the Czec Air Force,but the aircraft appears to be a Mig 27 Flogger[D I believe],the ground attack version.The Mig 27 had a blounter nose for better pilot view of ground targets wher the Mig 23 had a sleeker and more pointed nose for air to air combat as it was the fighter version.Thank you for this and let me know if this is a 23 or 27 .Bye for now and hope to visit the museum in person
