Items in this pack : Item #1 - Click to view individual item DHM2709AP. Threatening Skies by Richard Taylor. Richard Taylors painting recreates an encounter on 19th February 1945. As dawn breaks over the Pacific, a determined force of Japanese Ki-44s launch a surprise attack on a large formation of USAAF B-29 Superfortresses as they approach the Japanese mainland. B-29 gunners let rip as one fighter flashes past, with a second fighter closing at high speed. Chunks of the B-29s port wing and aileron have been taken out in the initial attack, and with another Japanese fighter fast on its tail, the outcome of this particular encounter hangs in the balance. A total of ten Superfortresses fell victim that day. Supplied with companion print Into the Sun. Signed by Lieutenant Colonel Ralph Nutter, Colonel James Pattillo and Captain Ben Robertson.
