Willing to help fellow C-47 buffs with blueprint requests. I have all rolls, and am willing to copy a few prints that you might need for your project.

PM me.

Hoping to find some drawings for the following areas for a "Late C-47B"

Mounting rail and beam for the astro compass (Mark II)

Radio rack/mounts - to fabricate the simpler mount trays

Details of the mounts for APN 1 and APN 2 units for Nav Station

Radio Junction Box DAC P/N 5185401

Radio CB Panel DAC 4189666

This is for the radio and Nav station restoration on C47 44-76716 delivered in April 1945. This is the Yankee Air Museum aircraft in Belleville Michigan.

If you can provide an index or sampling of the print detail available in your collection of the radio/nav positions perhaps I can narrrow down a bit what will be helpful to us. Thank You

I will look up the 2 part numbers you gave me so far, I have the rolls blocked out as to what rolls have what part number ranges on them, so it will be quick to identify. The remaining items on the list, can you get part numbers for me so i dot have to read through my books looking or get the wrong part #/

Thanks
dave
