P-59A Posted January 7, 2020 Share #1 Posted January 7, 2020 I was tripping through E-pray and found this pic. I have never seen this configuration before. This has to be the early blister window. Note the ammo feed that was also used in the radio operators compartment and how they were mounted. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AZPhil Posted January 7, 2020 Share #2 Posted January 7, 2020 So is this a B-17 pic? If B-17 this must be a staged photo, No O2 mask/ Throat mic or heated flight suits. I would love to see the B-17 configuration this was on. Semper Fi Phil Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
