Who owns faux Memphis Belle?

Tue Mar 10, 2009 9:57 am

WIX brain...I did some internet research and saw the flying B-17 painted as Memphis Belle operated out of HAG last year. Can someone confirm who the owner is and where it's based? One website showed it being owned by MARC in Chino.

David Tallichet was the owner, I believe. I assume his family still has ownership of it.

Gary is correct, still owned by MARC/Tallichet. The aircraft is currently based at Geneseo NY with the 1941 HAG . Lots of members of HAG and residents close to Genny hope it remains for a long long time.

Cheers,

Jeff :D
