I tried posting on this last night but I suspect that there is some form of
filter in the mailing list that knocks out messages with too many URL's.
Anyhow, if you go to google.com and put the search term "DC-3" and "floats"
in you will find a bunch of pages with pictures of the DC-3 float
conversion. Plus a page that lists all variants of the DC-3 which
indicates that only one C-47 was converted during the war. That not only
flies in the face of Marin's research but also a vague memory I have of
once seeing a photograph of two float equipped C-47's sitting side by side.
