I did look on Wiki, and I will say, for 1941 technology that thing is awesome. I had no idea - I knew aircraft development went thru the roof during the good war, but that thing is like a spaceship compared to even aircraft from a decade earlier.
Its funny, you think you know things, then something like this appears, and you just go huh?
(the Lockheed Constellation made me do the same thing, what a beautiful airplane.)
