This large bomber is quite interesting. Four engines in pusher-puller arrangement powered it; a fifth engine inside the fuselage powered a supercharger for the other four so it could fly at high altitudes. Of the 7 man crew, 2 were mechanics. Their station was inside the engine nacelles during flight to keep them running.
