| Where is this cutaway from? Hey everyone. I found this cutaway of the b-17 and I was wondering if anyone knew where it is from and if it is in the public domain or not. Thanks! |

| I didn't realize they had "de-icers". Inflatable boots or heating coils? it makes sense, it just never occurred to me. How common were de-icers in ww2? when did they become common place? Did all the nations employ them? |

| The 'image' is lifted from page 101 of Bill Gunston's book, "Classic World War II Aircraft Cutaways" (cutaways produced during the war). |
