Is "Dragon and his Tail" the same B-24 that used to be painted as
"All
American"? Collings Foundation, right?

Yes, the same airplane...the ONLY flying B-24.

There's an LB-30 flying still.

Heard of a C-87? Why sure, did you know that FDR
used a C-87 in a role that in later days would get a plane
called Air Force 1?
I don't guess I've ever seen one though, outside a photo.
Any C-87 survivors have likely been converted to B-24s
by now. I know this was the case for XC-108, a B-17E
converted to a tanker; it was "discovered" to still exist in
private hands but was restored to the B-17 configuration.
