Boeing B-17F (late) Flying Fortress

Christened The Fool's Errand a Boeing B-17F Flying Fortress serial 41-2686 (wrong serial as from a batch for Douglas A-20B-DL Havoc !). As the first flight of a B-17G occured in mid August 1943 so it's just a late B-17F but not a 1941 airframe as suggested by the false serial !
