Thanks Apophenia.

Now archives have demonstrated that, while the Centre NC.900 was just a French Fw-190, the NC.900Z was different from the Fw-190Z:

Why not a single seat on one side and tandem seats on the other.  The single seat could be the pilot and the tandem seats could be high-ranking, or otherwise important, passengers.

While the CASA C-2111 was just a normal Heinkel He-111, the C-2111Z was different from the He-111Z:

makes much more sense than wasting a 2nd crew in the other fuselage :)

I was going to do a zwiling on your AGA XLRG-2 marine glider ;)

mixed engine positions ?  The right fuselage seems to have the engine in the nose but the forward cockpit seems to mean a mid-engine for the left fuselage !
Can you add the exhaust stubs to show it ?? ;D

Both have mid-engine. The starboard fuselage has a cockpit at the same position as a P-39 and the port fuselage has a cockpit at the same position as a FTB Mustang...
Drawing oblical curved exhaust pipes in slanting view is not easy, I may try but I am not sure to get a satisfying result.
