Great to hear. I was at the Hangar on Tuesday and they were feveriously working on putting the cowlings back on. I talked to some of the crew and they had brought some equipment in from the BBMF to help check the engines out while still on the aircraft. According to the crew all the checks showed negligible damage to the engines. At the same time the DC3 is sitting in the hangar minus a wing. First time I saw how the outer wing was attached to the main wing. That's an awful lot of small 1/4" bolts that holds the outer wing on.
