Japanese in Java, 40-3097 survived the Philippines campaign to be used as the personal VIP transport of the
Panama Canal Department/Caribbean Defense Command Flight Section CO and was flown all over Latin America.
It then became a ground training air frame for New Haven cadets. Throughout the war, it was continually
rebuilt with wreckage of other B-17s and kept on flying in SW Pacific. Later assigned
as personal transport of Gen George Brett. At end of war, consigned to Kingman, AZ for
scrapping, but was saved by Frank Kurtz, its wartime pilot, who arranged for the
city of Los Angeles to accept it as a war memorial. On April 6, 1946, Kurtz flew the
airplane to Mines Field, the Los Angeles municipal airport. Among his passengers were
the mayor of Los Angeles and Mrs. Kurtz. Following acceptance ceremonies, airport
personnel stored the B-17 inside a hangar. Plan for war memorial fell through and
Frank Kurtz arranged for the National Air Museum to acquire the aircraft. Kurtz
flew the plane in May 1948 to the old C-54 assembly plant at Park Ridge, IL for storage.
In June 1950 the USAF claimed the Park Ridge facility for military use, and the Smithsonian
officials abandoned the hangar. On Jan 18, 1952, an Air Force crew flew the plane to
Pyote, TX for storage. Flown to Andrews AFB, MD Dec 3, 1953 and stored outdoors there
for six years. In April 1961, the plane was trucked to the Paul Garber Preservation,
