Yep, it's B-17G 'Sally B' over Duxford.

 

[Old Wizard]

 

[Capt. Vick]

Oh damn! I would never had gotten thatnone. Good job.

 

[T Bolt]

The color really confused me, looked like black. Once I knew It wasn't the side of an engine cowling I looked at it again and it just hit me.

Here's one I hope confuses you guys

 

[Airframes]

Navigator's window on a B-17 ?

 

[T Bolt]

Nope, but it is a window on a bomber

 

[Airframes]

Ah !
B-26 then - radio station, aft of the cockpit ?

 

[T Bolt]

No, wrong air force

 

[wuzak]

Mosquito?

 

[Robert Porter]

Or possibly a Whirly?

 

[T Bolt]

No. neither one

I can't really show a larger area of that picture without giving it away so here's another shot of the same aircraft from a different angle

 

[Airframes]

JU-88 ?

 

[T Bolt]

Very good Terry!

Its at the Air Force Museum in Dayton

 

[Robert Porter]

Dang it I think I finally have one that will be tough. Hint: Saw a great deal of use on D-Day.

 

[T Bolt]

Robert, It's Terry's turn to post a picture since he guessed the last one correctly

 

[Robert Porter]

Ooops my bad!

 

[Airframes]

No problem Robert, you have a go with your pic. But I can only see patchy shadows, so haven't a clue what it could be - perhaps a Horsa ?

 

[T Bolt]

Halifax?

 

[Airframes]

Maybe a smoke-laying Boston ?

 

[Robert Porter]

This is a little more, problem is there are not a lot of good pictures of this guy that I can find. But so far no one has got it. Right airforce, it is an RAF aircraft.
