Names of B-17 engines?
« on: December 20, 2011, 11:55:16 PM »
Do we have any B-17s  skin that each engine was giving a name on it? Came across a pic of on B-17 that did that. Trying to find it.

Last I recall there are only 2 engines on the skin, the inner and the outer. They are mirrored so the same skin is on both inboard and both outboard engines.

I don't think it's possible, or that you'd be able to read it with the small number of pixels available.
