Description
No, this is the tail-gunners position of the North American B-25J 'Mitchell' No. 44-30734, owned by Rag Wings & Radials Aircraft Leasing, Wilmington, Delaware which participated in the 'A Gathering of Warbirds' at Reading.
The 'Warthog Cockpit' title refers to the Fairchild Republic A-10 'Thunderbolt II', generally referred to as 'Warthog' or 'Hog'. This B-25 tail-gunners position and the cockpit of the A-10 struck me as similar looking.
This picture was taken on 2 June 2012 at Spaatz Field, Reading, PA,

LOL I don't recall a Warthog EVER looking this good....EVER!

Can definitely see your point, I love the 'Hog' but prefer this 'piston pounder'.. Great detail when zoomed and some very intriguing reflections !
nice capture and beautiful bomber

This is my kind of shot, my friend! A small part of a plane, something shiny, excellent reflections ... it's outstanding!!
A 'Warthog' can look pretty good when it is saving your butt!
Love your composition of this "J" photo...one of the last 4,318 B-25s built. All built in Kansas City...my old stomping grounds:)
Superb capture my friend. God Bless.
Super image and hats off to the men who manned the guns.
not my favored place to be,when the shat hits the fin.
cool shot
amazing with the reflections to see .. fantastic photo Sig !
I can just imagine the tail-gunner of a stricken Hollywood "Mitchell" hitting a big button...helling "I'm outta here..." and the entire tail assembly separates as a small rocket plane.... Whoosh! Very "James Bond"!
Nice shot!!!!
