If anyone was in any of these locations on June 18,19 or 20th in 1987 and remember seeing a Lockheed L-18 loadstar painted black with large red letters that said J&B on it, and took pictures of it, I would be forever gratefull if you would please concider shareing those pics with me. Also any news articles would be great as well.

On that date this aircraft was flying around the world duplicating and trying to beat the record that Howard Hughes set in 1938 with an L-14 Lockheed.
There were 3 frenchman and 1 Canadian ( who restored the aircraft) on board and they did beat Hughes record by a couple of hours.

Thanks in advance . You can PM me if needed.

Yes that's it ! Thank you very much but, I do have that photo. I am looking for actual photos of the aircraft and/or crew on the day when they landed in any of these locations, when they did the Round the World flight on June 17-21 1987.

Thanx again. This means alot to me.
