Designed to a demanding
US Army specification for a high-speed medium
bomber, the
B-26 quickly acquired a reputation as a "hot-ship". Following
a careful investigation,
changes to the aircraft to improve low-speed
handling, and
changes in handling techniques meant the aircraft went on
to record the
lowest attrition rate of any US aircraft operated in Europe by
the 9th Air
Force. Unlike other WW2 types however, the B-26 was rapidly
removed from
service at the end of WW2.
