Evening HD,

Is it the Boeing YB-29 fitted with Allison in-line engines, I believe it may have been called the XB-39 after the modification to fit the Allison V3420-17 engines ?

It seems worth a quick shot without too much checking as I've only got a few minutes to play!

Just found out that what I initially thought were windows, was the painted name "Spirit of Lincoln" and it was designated the Boeing 345 XB-39

Open House please when confirmed as I'm off very soon.
