Jing I am curious as to how you established this a/c was slated for 94th BG. The 94th would have been overseas and experienced combat losses by June availability of this plane out of UAL/ CHY. Does the IARC show a Project number for the 94thBG (92033) or something more like 921XX-R? Are those crossed out an a Project Number like a mid to high 901XX-R substituted?
Please let me know how the substitution was determined.

Hello Phil,
the information is from Dave Osborne’s Master Log.
I did not check the fact for this B-17 so far.
We know, that many information in the Master Log are incorrect.
Needs time to check and correct everything.
Cheers
Jing
