Memphis Belle on one side, Sally B on the other



      A B17 of two halves, the only flying B17 in Europe in fact and it is named after the two lovely ladies who are portrayed with some flair on the port and starboard sides of the fuselage on the nose section.
      My mum always used to say 'Red shoes no knickers' but you couldn't say that about the lady on the Memphis Belle. Perhaps the Sally B should have been called 'Gay Abandon' and she's definitely not wearing red shoes.
      Go and see them both at IWM Duxford, they're in the flying collection with yet more aircraft with lovely graphics for you to feast your eyes on.
