Hello Hugh
I need the profile of the bottom frame from the drawing. All my other
bottom frames were made to the drawings; so for it to fit properly the
41505 frame should be made from the drawing also. I am using the
Fairchild Handbook 0f F-24 Series Airplanes, The Erection and
Maintenance manuel for the UC-61 & Argus aircraft, and the Parts Catalog
for the UC-61 & Argus aircraft, and they are a great help, but the
profile can only come from the drawing.
I also have the structural repair manuel for the F-24, and am using it
for any repairs but in this case, I have to make the frame from scratch
because I don't have an old part to repair.
Thanks for the offer anyway Hugh.

Rich, I am not sure what details you are in need of from drawing 41505,
but perhaps 'The Handbook Of Instructions For The Structural Repair Of
The C-61
(UC-61, F-24) Series Transport Airplanes may meet your needs. The
handbook is Army Air Force, Technical Order No.012-1125CA-3 issued 20
Nov 1942.
I believe the Essco or other dealers have the manual or I can send you a
copy of mine if need be. Hope this helps. Hugh

I have been waiting for almost 1 year now to order a drawing from the
NASM and they still don't know when they will be able to accept drawing
requests. As many of you know their expected move completion date keeps
moving out. With the federal budget in the shape it's in, we may have to
wait much longer to request drawings. I have completed all the bottom
fuselage frame components for my 1946 F24 except for frame 41505 at
station 3-1/2B. That frame drawing is not on the club CD and I have not
been able to locate a drawing anywhere. I'm sending this request out to
the club again, in hopes some kind soul may have a drawing copy or
tracing of this frame to share.
Thanks
Rich Seifert
