Re: New Oesau Foto
Hard to tell with the impact damage from the crash, but the window layout on the visible starboard side looks more like a B-17 (two windows split by metal strips) than a B-26 (one window and a rear dome/hood). Also, the tail control elements on a B-26 were above the tail gunners position, as opposed to the B-17, where the control elements were forward and slightly below the tail gunner's position. Very hard to be sure, though.
