Preserved at the entrance to this extremely interesting, now closed, airfield in a mountain that straddles Croatia and Bosnia. The plane was built for the USAAF as 44-76592 and later flew with the RAF as KN453. Note that the port and starboard sides are different. This photo is copyright © Alastair T.
