EVALUATION A-26s AT NADZAB & HOLLANDIA BETWEEN MAY & JULY 1944 These aircraft arrived at Finschafen in May 1944 on board ship. They
were assembled and flown to Nadzab where the testing by the 3rd Bomb
Group began. The aircraft were flown at Hollandia as well and more than
likely flown back to Nadzab after the testing. There is a substantiated
report of one of the aircraft being crashed at Nadzab where it had ended
up after the test. EVALUATION A-26 AT HOLLANDIA VIA SCOTT LINDLEY |
Purportedly one of the 4 evaluation A-26s tested by the 3rd BG in 1944. It has the under wing gun pods. The writing on the fuselage appears to be Country Rambler. This is most likely Nadzab where the 4 aircraft returned after the evaluation. |
