the aerodome in the roof marks this as the C-47 Skytrain

Thanks for the comment. I did get to talk with crew members and visit the inside of the plane. They pointed out the DC3 civilian and C47 military duties in the war. As far as posting I covered both and most of the Aircraft listed for this is the DC3 so that is the type listed.

the aerodome and cargo doors are the hall marks of the C-47/R4D

I took 7 total, I surrounder that thing. If you need to see the PORT side click on all the newest photos of that aircraft and I am sure you will be satisfied with something I took. As much as this aircraft had a 1 1/2 day visit no one else posted anything.

show the sliding rails just to the left arm of the STAR

This airframe has so many variants it is often difficult to tell on from the other

Very enlightening those two sites. Sometimes you can simply miss some important details that old aircraft have. Thanks
