You're welcome Steve, and thanks. ID's are important to me too... they can get so murky at times! Yes, I believe that the cupola being worked on did come from an Alaskan wreck. I am pretty certain it wasn't from an L series aircraft, as most of those remains that I am aware of have been from earlier models. Have a great day yourself.

Cheers,
Richard
