Sorry Rad, not one of us, we only messed with the tank section, the error is all yours to own ;)

As for your plane and fear of flying it, I don't blame you, it is far too good to risk :thumbup:

Yeah, I guess the fear is so big that subconsciously I placed it in the non-RC section. :D

The same 1800 mm wingspan Gooney Bird is available from various European retailers as an RC commercial DC-3 under the VQ or Pichler brands. I suppose someone experienced with the light materials used in RC aircraft might be able to paint one as a DC-3 and Rad could probably come up with stencils for the markings. Me? Egad, no! I love the Gooney Bird as the C-47 but I have so many projects to do, I must be content just to drool at Rad's.
