Default RE: DC-3/C-47 question

That would make sense. Last weekend I bought a pair of OS.40fs 4-strokes to use on mine. They're a much better fit than the saito .56's I was planning on. They were even used in a twin and have equal time on them. I will use the 1/4" steel rod jig I made awhile back. I've never done the root/tip sand the blanks method before so it should be interesting. As for the flattened fuse sides, I'll figure out some way to deal with that. Either flatten the formers a bit before build up, or modify the formers before I make the templates. Osman, how did you do the nacells? As someone earlier stated, I dont see any formers other than the firewall. Is it the TAR method (Thats About Right).
