Re: FD Scale Aircraft 14
Good afternoon:
Nice Eagles, Rasping Leech!
This is a fantastic STOL medium transport aircraft, the Canadian De Havilland DHC'5 Buffalo.
Derived from the Caribou, it was a well designed aircraft (I remember -as a child- that I saw one of this aircraft landing and taking off from a strip of beach no more than 400 yards in lenght!).
Credits: Of course, I used Eswube´s "orange aircraft" as the color guide. And also, the brasilian star is derived from an Eswube´s pre-war USAAF star. Cheers!
PS: Edited, with the drawings corrected.

Nice additions guys.
reytuerto,
Sorry to nitpick your work again, but you might want to re-look and the engine nacelle as I think you're missing some of the details on the panelling and the shape of the front of the nacelle looks wrong to me (maybe the propeller too).

Oh, yes, thanks Hood! Is a very big aid (I was confused about the opening of the doors in the naceles, of course, a pair was missing !). I will fix it in the following days. Cheers!

Re: FD Scale Aircraft 14
Another little known aeroplane, the Douglas Y1B-7 is perhaps best remembered for participating in the 1934 Airmail Emergency, thanks to them being "considered some of the least unsuitable aircraft in the Air Corps inventory for the air mail role".
Your feedback is of course most welcome.
EDIT: edited according to Hood's comment.

Re: FD Scale Aircraft 14
The drawings look good to me.
I would be tempted to use a larger template though so the drawings are so squashed together.
