The April issue of the west coast Inflight magazine will report, and Tom Reilly confirms, that the B-17G being rebuilt by Reilly at Kissimmee, Florida, and known as Outhouse Mouse has been sold to the Liberty Foundation, a principal of which is Don Brooks of Atlanta, Georgia. This B-17G is mainly s/n 44-85734 with the tail section from s/n 44-85813. According to Reilly, the airplane will remain based at Kissimmee after returning to the air next year, eventually gaining 390th Bomb Group markings, and being used for national tours much like the Collings Foundation "909" tours each year.
