Several years ago, the History Channel produced a documentary on the
ESB. It is still available, I believe, and does include mention of that
B-24 (I think) that hit the building.

Does anyone know where I can get Pics of the NY skyline 1945?  Also I 
would 
like some info on the plane that crashed into the Empire State
Building,  I've 
found some stuff but very little.  Were there any movies or books on 
the 
subject that I can locate?   Thanks.

Try back issues of Life Magazine. They had photos of the crash and
great photographers on the staff in those years.
