Here's two more to take a shot at (without cheating) ... one should be easy, the other not so much

1st is C-47?
2nd is A-20?
Oops - just noticed the caption you forgot to remove. A-20B

Correct you are Chris on the A-20B, and a C-41 for the other cockpit.

Douglas A-20B No. 42 of the 111th Observation Squadron, 68th Observation Group (antisubmarine patrol), taken in early 1943 at Oujda, French Morocco (North Africa). Note the bombs mounted on wing racks. (U.S. Air Force photo)

C-41

Hello Mark,
Well, not really as it would therefore be a new version of the F-82 with single engine and nose gear
Probably more something like an F-100?

Sharp eye, Laurent (sharper than mine!) - the call tag gives it away. "Radio Call 53-504" is actually 55-3504, an F-100D that apparently ended its days at Davis-Monthan.

Didn't take long for someone to figure out that drag chute handle

F-100D

Greetings Laurent, I think I may be able to post a few. As for the request for some interior photos of the B-32? This manual has some good stuff for you.

Make sence given given thats where they are for a single central control stand, but other split cockpit aircraft like the b-29 has the throttle on the outboard side of the seat. Seems like this would make it harder to get in/out of the seat.
Mark any more interior shots of the B-32?
While a single pedestal, the Fairchild C-123 has two sets of throttles for each pilot. The only difference is that only the Left seat's throttle can activate the thrust reversers.

The c-82 has two full throttle/prop/mixture consuls on either side of a center consul. I believe the C-119 is the same as well.
