Assorted PFF Aircraft
There were a number of Pathfinder aircraft flown on missions with the 447th BG that were not identified on the Formation Charts or Load Lists. Some PFF planes have already been linked to plane numbers on the 447th BG listings (such as 44-8393 pictured above) and appear among the Planes pages like any other plane.
As for the others, until they can be identified by number this page will serve as a catch-all listing.
Here are some unidentified PFF examples that have shown up on our listings so far:
