I helped a little with DC-3 Flagship Detroit today, which is in for an annual inspection at AFW. I helped with reinstalling two fuel tanks. Question: Do C-47s have self sealing fuel tanks or aluminum tanks like this DC-3?

Here's a link referring to the installation of self-sealing tanks on the 437th TCG C-47s prior to "Operation Varsity". http://www.able506.com/440th/tcarticle_ ... sity.shtml
