RD, there is an ongoing banner thread in the lounge already.
please, rather post in that one than starting a new one.
https://www.sas1946.com/main/index.php/topic,14450.0.html
having a thread called today's banner is kinda pointless, as come tomorrow, it'll no longer be 'today's' banner, will it?
i'm gonna remove this once you've seen it, okay mate?

It's actually *not* a B-24! It's a photo recon variant called the F-7A.





F-7A Photo Recon planes were made by a relatively simple conversion from standard B-24Js. The F-7A had a triple camera arrangement of one vertical and two oblique cameras (also called "trimetrogon") installed in the navigator's compartment in the nose. The rear bomb bay doors were fixed shut and a floor placed in the bay. At the forward end of the rear bay, there was also a vertical camera installed on the starboard side and a split vertical camera station on the port. There was also additional equipment such as intervalometers and other controls installed. The forward bomb bay usually had auxiliary fuel tanks installed.

This one was "Nosie Rosie", 24th Combat Mapping Squadron, 8th Photo Reconnaissance Group, 10th Air Force

I've even done a skin for it (and some other F-7 planes)
