Memphis Belle

Hi all,
I shall be flying soon in the B17 Memphis Belle, the one that was in the film.
If anyone wants any photos of a particular area inside or the outside I will do my best to get them.

Many thanks for all your help today. I have now found UK supplier’s see links below. I did phone Cupalloys twice today, very unhelpful. Normal silver solder’s temp would destroy the item that I need to solder. Regards Robert Mahoney http://www.midwayuk.com/apps/eproductpage.exe/ShowProduct?saleitemi...
