DC-3 1:30 The rear of Alan Rose's beautiful 'trophy.'

Alan Rose’s magnificent DC-3 ‘trophy’ must rank as the most well-known DC-3, and at a scale of 1:15 nearly the largest paper model.
I was given permission by Alan Rose to design and add on the rear portion, and this I designed with a number of adaptations to the wing structure. The addition of extended landing gear, and replacement of the motors, both with the excellent ones designed by Fly Model C-47 “Sky Train” of Polish modelers, as well as the addition of more realistic tyres I designed, completes the model.
Thanks are due to Alan Rose for permitting me to use the basis of his model, as well as to Ruben Martinez who provided me with valuable information for the project.

I attach the 2 novelties... 1 the landing gear used, and 2, the tyres I designed. Very realistic, at a cost of 2 sides of A4 paper for each wheel!

This is very special, Bob. Joked about it for years, as The Ultimate Model. And you are doing it. Bravo!

Please note the title '1:30'.

I'm sure it can be enlarged, though
