'Reed Project' B-17 41-9112 :Same request as in 'The Bar" above

[jstar]

Looking for information on the Reed Project B-17 of 1943, a B-17E armed with Consolidated power turrets at the nose and tail. Looking especially for details, photos, of the twin power mount at the radio room. Have the pictures from Freemans 'B-17 Story' book and the 'Detail and Scale' vol.3 as well as the 1984 'Airpower' article. Want more. Please.

Many, many thanks
