Is that the German imposter?

Film of it was shown on the recent BBC documentary.
Excelent programme that; worth a watch and if its not on iPlayer any more it is or was on youtube.Heres a good one, B-17 Turbo prop test bed (Cargomaster engine in the nose I think):
There is a picture of it with the piston engines photoshopped out (I built one for FS2002 back in the day with one engine ) but its a fake it always had five engines.
Nice one PC that B17 sure does look "odd"
Watched the Mossie documentary tonight ..the one with the 42Commando chap... for some reason some of it felt familiar..
However was great to see a programme dedicated to the Mosquito and pleased that someone is actually making documentaries like this...

Yep, the cockpit has been moved back for starters, having a look around this is the Wikipedia entry for the P&W T34. It was rebuilt as the Liberty Belle.Watched the Mossie documentary tonight ..the one with the 42Commando chap... for some reason some of it felt familiar..
