The photo ain't of the highest quality but it is from
the frontal 3/4 view and it sure as heck looks like there are
_no_ metal panels around the engine at all! The fuselage seems
to be continuous plywood from the rear of the radiator all the
way back - no apparent break or panel line at the 'firewall'
like there is on 'normal' Fokkers. The only thing breaking up
the 'clean' run from nose to tail seems to be a round hatch or
inspection port on the starboard side about even with the
rear center strut.
S-o-o-o-o, all those things I said about not being able to use
plywood around the engine 'cause of heat problems? - never mind!
:-)
The mystery continues. Cheers,
