Nice pic Crazy 8)

 

[Nonskimmer]

It certainly is. 8)

 

[the lancaster kicks ass]

can't help but wonder what plane it is though..........

 

[plan_D]

Well, they're yank. So, I'm saying B-25...there's only 6 of them. They are yank, right!?!

 

[evangilder]

Definitely a yank eagle on the cap.

 

[plan_D]

What? No guesses on the plane, or congratulations on my logical approach to things?

 

[evangilder]

It is a logical approach, but I don't agree with your conclusion. The gear door is too low and the strut doesn't look like one from a B-25. Sorry. Compare with the pic below of Yellow Rose.

Looking at the picture though, it appears to me to be possible three crews of 2-seaters. The hats are the kicker. There are 2 guys with the busdriver hat and one with the envelope hat (also called the c*nt cap). There are also 3 guys with leather baseball caps with headsets. I am guessing the three with the ball caps on are back-seaters. Which airplane...who knows, but I am thinking if it may be a Pacific theater shot because they aren't bundled up and they are wearing mae wests more prominently.

 

[plan_D]

Possibly but only the Pilot and Co-pilot wore those officer hats...oh wait...so did the Navigator ...and bomb person...Bombardier

 

[evangilder]

That is true, but 2 of those guys are wearing headsets for radios. Why would you have 2 radio operators?

 

[plan_D]

Three are, the lad in the cunt cap and the two with caps.

 

[evangilder]

Opps, yep, three radio men. Hmmm...
