1. The Douglas B-18, the Martin B-17A bombers, totaling 100 planes, as well as a number of heavy Boeing 24's, which have been stationed at Albrook Field in the past, completely disappeared about two weeks ago. I am attempting to find out where they went.

 

2. I have heard that approximately (35 or 45 ?) two-motored bombing planes are stationed at the newly constructed Agua Dulce Air Field in the province of Cocli.
