L5463 lost an undercarriage leg when it hit a bump taking off on a mission on the night of May 25, 1940. The pilot returned and landed off the runway, collapsing the other leg. The aircraft must have been too valuable to abandon because it did make it back to the UK before the fall of France. 88 Sqn arrived back in June 1940. L5463 was shipped to Canada in 1942 where a turret was fitted for use as a gunnery trainer with the serial 2134. Suffered a belly landing at Mont Joli on November 22, 1943 and was written off.

In 1945 the US Navy received a batch of B-17Gs which were fitted with search radar for anti-submarine warfare and received the PB-1W designation. Ex 44-85683, this aircraft is marked as a PB-1W, but it was designated as an XPB-1 for development of the AEW (Airborne Early Warning) role. It was damaged at Mustin Field, Philadelphia when the brakes failed on 29 December 1949. It was used briefly for drop tests as a DPB-1 in 1950. Photo from: Naval History and Heritage Command
