  • Ontario/Chino 5-22-46

    Here is the aerial showing the Martin B-26's. For those that know photography this is sort of a miracle. It was shot at 1/100th sec in very dull weather, between 4 and 5pm, from a Piper J-3 Cub. The wonders of Adobe Photoshop do help to improve it. There are some B-25's in the very bottom of the photo.

            One of the rarer types at Ontario was this North American P-51C, 43-25057. War Assets regulations required that the national insignia be painted out as shown here on aircraft that were to be sold.
