Check out the background of the XF-11 shots - you can see three A-20s scattered around. Is one of them the one that Hughes had made over in exec configuration?

I read once (please don't ask me where) that one of the inboard engines had a different diameter propeller on it. Anyone know if that was actually true and why?
