Reader 123, (your #5008 p.251 refers)
Thank you for the link: "WW2: Flying the B-24D 4 Engine Land Bomber (1943) Reel 1/2 - YouTube" (Reel 1). I was amused by the way that it jumps from take-off to landing with nothing in between (if only it were that that simple !)
But there is a hidden gem. If you run through it to the end, a little box of thumbnails appears. One is of a lone B-17. Pick that, and you get the original War Department "Memphis Belle" - the "real" one.....D.

This is worth a look. It reminds me of the Ministry of Information film "Target for Tonight" during the war, which put all its fictional followers in the shade....D.

Thanks for the "gen" on the MkIX(T) canopies and radio masts. It might have been simpler to cut a hole a foot further back, extend the lead and reposition the mast, rather than bending it back as they did ...D.
My regards to you all, Danny.
