Description
The B-26 "Flak-Bait" is the remarkable story of an American bomber that achieved unparalleled success during World War II. With 201 combat missions under its belt, it holds the record for the highest mission scorer of any Allied medium or heavy bomber. This detailed account draws on official records and personal accounts from the crews who flew the aircraft, providing a unique insight into its remarkable career. The book features day-by-day accounts of the missions, crew lists, flight routes, and weapons dropped, as well as a special photo section showcasing the current restoration display of "Flak-Bait" at the Steven F. Udvar-Hazy Center. Correcting previously held perceptions about the aircraft and its missions, this book offers a fresh perspective on one of the most accomplished American bombers of the Second World War.
