B-24 witchcraft

I like it that way.

Did we ever get the full story on how the nose got banged up?

Pretty sure that was covered... IIRC, something to the tune of loss of brakes and rolling into something.

Back when that happened, someone had posted a photo on another site with her nose smashed in. The comment section below was full of "whats and wheres" with one speculator offering that the -17 had suffered a bird strike. With the lack of feathers and the amount of damage, I thought to myself, where did they find a pterodactyl to run into?

the b-17 had a taxiing accident. The b-24 had a bird strike which smashed some of the plexiglass of the nose turret

Thanks for posting! It looks like the plexiglass of the 24 has been fixed
