If you're researching a USAAS/USAAC/USAAF/USAF or USN/USMC aircraft, you can search for the serial number
HERE .
This is a convenient search facility built around Joe "Mr. Serial Number" Baugher's serial number listing which Cheddar Cheese linked above.
You'll get varying amounts of information depending on the airframe and whether or not it has an MACR associated with it...

Intially, I was researching the Sweet 17 (4297276)...but in this instance I was asking in a more general sense. From time to time I see pictures of planes and I wonder about the history...
Both of the sites posted were very helpful but I would still like to know what happened to the actual airframe for the Sweet 17...is there some sort of a list for that? I have already googled it...searched the 91st BG site and spoke to two crew members...no info.
Thanks for your help!

That's a good start, plus if the serial numbe of the airplane is available, that is helpful, but not necessary.
