Default RE: Help with keels

Naa on a C 130. Its base for the fuselage is a rectangular box. Extending from that box at each corner from the longerons are what the plans call keels. The top two keels extending out towards the nose of the plane are curved inward to follow the shape of the aircraft. The bottom two are curved up. I hope that explains it.
