The B-36 Filght Engineer Panel

One of the strangest planes to modern eyes is the B-36, an absolutely huge bomber originally designed to carry out Canada to Berlin bombing raids (in case Britain fell to the Nazis) and Hawaii to Japan bombing raids.  By the time it was ready, its mission had changed: to carry the really big hydrogen bombs of the 1950s.  Wikipedia describes it as the largest piston engine plane ever built.  More than size, it used pusher propellers:

As you might expect, with six engines, the flight engineer's console was pretty impressive.  Go here for a scrollable and zoomable image of it.

UPDATE: Castle Air Force Museum in California's Central Valley has one of these that I saw many years ago.  One of my readers took these pictures of one at the  Pima Air Museum in Tucson last month.  (For some reason, I can't link to them directly.)
