Consolidated Liberator C Mk. VIT, RCAF (Serial No. 570), No. 168 (Heavy Transport) Squadron, based at RCAF Station Rockcliffe, Ontario, 14 Nov 1944.

The Consolidated C-87 Liberator Express was a transport derivative of the B-24 Liberator heavy bomber built during World War II for the United States Army Air Forces. A total of 287 C-87s were built alongside the B-24 at the Consolidated Aircraft plant in Fort Worth, Texas. The plant also developed and delivered a USAAF flight engineer trainer designated as the AT-22, a United States Navy VIP transport designated as the RY, and a Royal Air Force VIP transport designated as the Liberator C.IX. The last development was a Navy contracted, single tail version with an extended fuselage. Built in San Diego, its USN designation was RY-3.

RCAF Consolidated Liberator C Mk. VI, Mk. VIT (B-24H/C-87), converted to transport aircraft. (10), (Serial Nos. 570, 571, 572, 573, 574, 575, 576, 577, 578, 579).Harold Skaarup web page and Wikipedia
