Model Airplane Factory, makers of hand made model aircraft, presents to you our Memphis Belle B-17 Flying Fortress mahogany model bomber display. After passing through several stages of sanding and priming, our talented artists paint and detail the Memphis Belle B-17 Flying Fortress model display mahogany aircraft with historically correct markings of the B17F Memphis Belle. The rich color paint scheme and markings of the B-17 Memphis Belle are cautiously painted to the assembled Memphis Belle B-17 Flying Fortress aircraft bomber display mahogany. The B17 Memphis Belle mahogany plane model is meticulously carved and painted to reflect the true detail of the original B17 Memphis Belle. This B-17 Memphis Belle display mahogany model made of mahogany comes with a metal stand and wooden base.
Memphis Belle was the nickname of a B-17 Flying Fortress during the Second World War that inspired the making of two motion pictures: a 1944 documentary film: Memphis Belle: A Story of a Flying Fortress and a 1990 Hollywood feature film: Memphis Belle. The actual Memphis Belle, a Boeing-built B-17F-10-BO was delivered in September 1942 to the 91st Bomb Group at Dow Field, Bangor, Maine.
