Thanks, Cashflyer.
None of the pics I had of the C 46 showed up the bulge in the lower part of the fuselage like that.
Thank tcar... I wouldn't have gone looking if he hadn't mentioned the C-46 originally.

B-17 is photoshop.
The B-57 is one of two operated by NASA for "research".
The Martin B-57 is an American version of the English Electric Canberra.

From Wikipedia:
WB-57F - Weather reconnaissance version.
Two WB-57F aircraft were transferred to NASA and are the only WB-57s still flying in the world today. They are used for atmospheric research and for monitoring Space Shuttle takeoff and landing.
