Consolidated (Ford-Built) B-24M-15-FO 44-50919

This unusual shot is from the F.H. (Chris) Christensen
collection (via Craig Neumayer).
It depicts two very late model Ford Motor Co
built B-24s over Tulsa in 1945. They
had doubles had some mods done at the Tulsa Modification Center.
In all Ford built
some 1,677 model Ms
although in the event most of them were delivered too late in the
war to see
service (it was apparently almost impossible to stop the production
lines) and
most were sent directly to the Reconstruction
Finance Corporation's dump at Kingman,
Arizona where they
were eventually broken up.
