Churchill's Liberator Transport "Commando"
Winston Churchill's luggage being unloaded from "Commando", his personal Liberator II transport aircraft, after the Casablanca Conference of January 1943. At this point the aircraft still resembled a standard B-24, but it was later modified with a solid nose and single fin. The aircraft was lost during March 1945 while flying to the United States. The aircraft was originally accepted as Liberator II AL504 in August 1941
