Does anyone have a photo of the weird looking Navy B-17 AEW modification
with the big APS-20 radome mounted over the cockpit? There was only one
top
mount - 77234 - and it flew with VW-1 in the fifties. I have the candid
shots of it posted on the VW-1 website but there are several more around,
one shot at NAS Norfolk in 1955.
