American Air Museum Duxford, UK
This is an EB-24M Liberator on display at the US Air Force History and
Traditions Museum on the grounds of Lackland AFB in San Antonio, Texas.
The EB-24M is a late production B-24. It was adapted to a research role
after the war. Its last assignment was ice research, where it was believed
to be the last B-24 in USAF service when retired in 1956. The aircraft
was displayed on the parade grounds at Lackland AFB until 1999. At that time,
it was moved to the new American Air Museum in Britain, where it went on
display at the B-24M named Dugan. Its spot on the Lackland AFB parade grounds
was filled with a fiberglass replica.
