List of B-17 Flying Fortress serial numbers
Note: this list is not complete yet as some United States Army Air Forces serial numbers will not match this list. The tail number on a B-17 bomber will omit the first digit, hence 42-97550 is the Army Air Forces serial number and 297550 is the tail number of the airplane.
