Notes:

In December 1942 this B-17 was making its way from Greenland to Goose Bay, Labrador When weather and low fuel forced the crew to land on a frozen lake. The crew was rescued, but the plane was left behind. In Aug 2014 the plane was found on the bottom of Dyke Lake torn in half. She was raised and brought to Douglas for restoration.
