 "Aluminum Overcast" was put on display until 1983, before it began a 10-year restoration.The extensive work involved the rebuilding of all the interior stations, including the radio compartment, waist gunners' stations, tail turret and navigator's station, and replacing the cabin flooring, as well as locating original equipment such as the Norden bombsight.Where authentic components were not available, realistic replicas, such as the new-manufacture top turret, were substituted.
