I've seen some Apaches listed that are 'Doyne conversions' but I can't find what the conversion involved, except maybe 180hp engines. I know about Geronimos, but what exactly makes up a Doyne conversion Apache?

Can anyone here tell me the minimum engine idle speed for a DC-3. Is there a listing for this rpm in any of the engine or aircraft service literature from all those years ago?

My recently acquired 30+ year old project restoration had some "powder" under the paint at the rivet/dimples on the fuselage. I believe it was old body putty. What "filler" can be recommended for smoothing over the rivet/dimple prior to repriming/repainting? Thanks, Dick

This could be in error, but was Meigs 100% "private"? It is my understanding that it is/was a "private" airport and has never taken Federal funding and thus the beloved Mayor and his crew were legal (though not so smart or clever) in destrorying the airport? Just asking. GA
