B52STRATO Posted October 22, 2014 Posted October 22, 2014 P&W T-34 test bed and SB-17. I pretty like the old 44-85531 with Fulton system used in Thunderball Different aircraft, but a variant which saved many in Korea 1 Quote
Jarhead1 Posted October 22, 2014 Posted October 22, 2014 I have seen pics of the second B-17 pic of urs Dave, but never seen the first pic before. Pretty cool Quote
JediMaster Posted October 22, 2014 Posted October 22, 2014 That was for the fighter variant, the FB-17, that was cancelled when it was discovered the P-36 was better. 1 Quote
MigBuster Posted October 22, 2014 Posted October 22, 2014 Reminds me of the Junkers thing with the 3 engines Like the FB-17 concept - thou assume its being used for an engine test. Quote
JediMaster Posted October 23, 2014 Posted October 23, 2014 Another problem with the FB-17 was the gunners falling out when they made a sharp roll. 1 Quote
Wrench Posted October 23, 2014 Posted October 23, 2014 sure you're not confusing the FB17 with the YB-40 escort ship? Quote
MigBuster Posted October 23, 2014 Posted October 23, 2014 No idea that designation existed - and it looks like it flew operational raids - well on wiki. Quote
