WWII Bomber B-24J Paint Scheme to be Changed to 8th Air Force, 467th BG "Witchcraft" Colors (4)

This first section (above row of asterisks) is with corrections made by Flickr User Konabish. The latter section is what I had before he helped me correct it. My thanks to him.

 

To the best of my knowledge the smallest plane is a TP-51C Mustang Fighter named Betty Jane. The bomber plane that says Witchcraft and Audre is a B-24J Liberator bomber. It was built in USA, sent to Britain, and it saw action during WWII with the Royal Air Force (RAF). After WWII it saw service in India. The bomber plane with Nine 0 Nine or 909 on the side is a B-17G Flying Fortress Bomber, and I got to see it fly into Corvallis, Oregon Airport. These 3 planes were from WWII and are restored and maintained by The Collings Foundation (www.cfdn.org). There were many veterans at the show this afternoon, and they seemed both happy and awed to see these.

This section below the row of asterisks is what I thought was correct until Konabish helped me. I only keep it for a reference of what I had said previously.

 

Obviously, I am neither a WWII expert nor a fighter and bomber plane expert. I post these here for those of you that are, to enjoy. To the best of my knowledge the smallest plane is a B-17 Fighter Plane Mustang named Betty Jane. The bomber plane that says Witchcraft and Audre is a B-21, I think. It was built in USA, sent to Britain and they used it in India. Someone at the show said it might not be the exact one. I don't know. The bomber plane with Nine 0 Nine or 909 on the side is a B-24 Bomber, I think, and I got to see it fly into Corvallis, Oregon Airport. These 3 planes were from WWII. There were many veterans at the show this afternoon, and they seemed both happy and awed to see these. Please feel free to offer corrections, but don't slam me for my lack of knowledge about this subject. I had no money to go into the show, and I did the best I could.
