UFO of the week

Since I had great success with the spare lamps box I posted here, I thought I'd try a harder piece. This is a window off of a pressurized aircraft. I suspect it is for B29, but it is manufactured by a North American subsidiary, Del Riccio. Part number is prefixed with 82, and it has a yellow tag on it but I can't read the aircraft type. If you have any clues, please let me know.

Come on you guys!!! :rolleyes:

Someone else out there must know what this thing is! I've already sent John the details on this part, lets see if anyone else can figure it out.

Hint: It's not B-29!

John said he'll give a NOS L-3 gunsight to the first person who gueses it! (and a case of beer if you know what A/C the L-3 was used in). :partyman:

Trevor,
I had to go out and get the coon dogs off the warbird tree- I hang the truly unidentified parts out there and when I get tired of trying to identify them, I get old Harry the shotgun out and fire up the poor UFO's. I figure that if they didn't want to be identified, then it's a shallow grave and coon dog p*ss on 'em...
Thanks again for identifying this piece. Very interesting...
