Beautiful Betsy, a set on Flickr.
Beautiful Betsy, an American B-24D Liberator Bomber, disappeared on a routine flight from Darwin to Brisbane 26-27 February 1945 with six Ameriacn crewman and two Brittish Pilots as a passengers. The wreckage remained hidden on a remote hilltop in Kroombit Tops National Park for 49 years until a chance discovery by a park ranger undertaking buring operations in 1994. The site is now maintained as a war memorial, a fitting tribute to those who lost their lives.
