Aircraft History Wartime History Shortly after midnight on November 16, 1942 at Iron Range Airfield while taking off, B-24D "Bombs To Nip On" 41-23942 collided with this bomber and ripped off its nose. Damaged were B-24D 41-23765 and B-24D "Big Emma" 41-23751 (all later repaired). Destroyed was B-17F 41-24522. Steve Birdsall adds: Afterwards, it was flown to a repair depot and the nose was repaired and continued to fly combat missions from Australia and New Guinea. On January 3, 1944 this B-24 crashed at Doboudura and was written off. References Contribute
