The Boeing B-17 was the primary heavy bomber used in the European Theater of Operation during WW II. Flying directly into the heart of enemy territory, many B-17 crews and aircraft sustained heavy losses and never completed the 25 mission fulfillment requirement. One B-17 and crew that did complete the 25 mission requirement was "The Memphis Belle", piloted by then Captain Robert C. Morgan! Captain Morgan made "The Memphis Belle" one of the most famous bombers in WW II by completing the 25 combat mission requirement and returning with the entire crew alive! The Memphis Belle flew from November 7 1942 until May 17 1943. The aircraft and crew were sent on various public relations tours after the 25 mission fulfillment and in later years books, documentaries and movies were made about the aircraft, crew and missions. Presented for purchase is a RARE, Impossible to Find BRAND NEW AUTOGRAPHED museum quality 1/54 scale model of the Memphis Belle!!!!! This 1/54 scale model has full control surface and body panel line detailing machine gun turrets, rotating propellers, authentic USAAF colors and markings in the Memphis Belle version and a black finished wood display stand with two metal engraved and embossed plates attached to the base describing the missions, the crew, and the plane. The aircraft is 16 7/8" long and has wing span of 23 1/2". The aircraft is autographed on the wing by the pilot Robert Morgan. A document of authenticity from The Memphis Belle Memeorial Association is included to verify the autograph. A 35 mm color photo is included showing Robert Morgan signing the aircraft. The letter of authenticity explains the aircraft, crew, missions and autograph authentication. This model is BRAND NEW in the original box and was inspected for brand new condition and then resealed.
