    I'm not an expert....but I thought they were in the wings originally but that didn't work out very well....so they put it in the fuselage?

    Heinkel He 177A-7 high-altitude bomber

    This is the crane I was referencing. It was carried onboard the a/c for engine changes. I'm curious about the permanent attachment points in the top of the wing for this crane?
