We will get through the mud!

A quote I heard the other day: "When you start throwing mud, two things happen. You get your hands dirty, and lose a lot of ground."

:wink:

I don't see a door, just an area of darker paint. Most likely where a previous marking was painted out.

Yeah...if that's a door it'd be kinda impossible to load/unload through. Trust me. I worked enough DC-3 forward cargo doors back in the old days with Capital Airlines.
