The camera, which was behind the pilot seat, would be pointed sideways on aircraft flying oblique missions.

There was increasing tendency to use plywood on some less vital parts e.g. on a taller tailfin/rudder unit, pilot seat or instrument panel.

The cockpit layout consisted of the pilot seat and front gunner in the forward part of the cockpit.

The propellers on both engines of most conventional twin-engined aircraft spin clockwise (as viewed from the pilot seat).

The pilot seat was raised to improve visibility, and the windscreen was armored.
