030123 - LAST FLIGHT OF LIBERATOR 41-1133

By Cass.

What began as a routine cross-country training flight from Albuquerque to Kansas City in April 1942, ended in disaster on the crest of 10,242 foot high Trail Peak at the Boy Scouts of America’s fabled high adventure base, Philmont Scott Ranch in New Mexico. This is the full story of the crew and their training leading up to that mission whose wreckage is the most visited aviation crash site in the world today
