I just stumbled upon this list on another forum. Thought I'd paste it in here, and then put the link to the answers at the bottom.

Which reminds me, we haven't had much action on the "Identify This Aircraft From the Inside" thread lately.

I know a few without Googling:

7: B-17 (obviously)

11: F-105 Thunderchief (nice story about them in Air and Space this month)

12: P-47

4: I'd guess the F-04 Starfighter

5+15 (and probably a bunch of other planes): B-26 Marauder

Don't forget my favorite. "Whistling Death" the F4U Corsair.
