Consolidated B-24 Liberator

In spite of all the good work done by the B-24, I have little regard for
it. I read Louis Zamperini's book a long time ago. Read it long before the
be-nice-to-Japs movie. The 24 was a bucket of bolts. Louis wasn't the only
one I've heard express this. Read more slams by those who flew it. Sorry
if my opinion has offended a few in here.

With the fuel system routed through the fuselage, it tended to turn into a
torch when hit by enemy fire.
