Ha Ha ! It was when enlarging this picture that Neptune
revealed me it has a an important piece of structure made
of corrugated aluminium quite in the fashion of the older
and famous Luftwaffe's Junkers Ju 52 transport aircraft...Other
thing of interest, the sliding flaps of which inner
sections embodied the rear rounded and outflanking parts
of engine nacelles fairings to increase, at the price of
a serious lot of drag, the lifting efficiency for the
ultimate phases of flight...
