The Douglas A-26 Invader is one of my favorite aircraft. I finally got to see one in person at an airshow a few years ago in Colorado. "The Lady Liberty" is a fine example. She is seen here as a Korean War period night attack version. I took the opportunity to take a lot of high rez pictures, shown in a slideshow here. First flown in 1942, the Invader was the most advanced attack plane of World War 2, and her versatility kept her in service in a wide variety of roles for many years to come. Remarkably compact in size, she could pack up to 22 .50 cal machine guns and 4,000 lbs of bombs - more than a B-25 - and do it all with a crew of three with a top speed of over 350 mph. Lady Liberty is owned & operated by the CAF Airpower Museum and the A-26 Lady Liberty Sponsorship Group. For more information on this wonderful restoration see https://bit.ly/2OAvhZc
