This page from a U.S. Air Force technical manual (AN 01-35ED-1) illustrates the Flight Engineer's Switch Panel aboard a large multi-engine bomber of the Superfortress family, used during the Korean War. Part of the Lt. Bancroft Korean War collection, this document reflects the highly technical training and systems knowledge required of flight engineers who managed engine, electrical, turret, and radar countermeasures systems aboard these aircraft during combat operations.
