Modified Antarctica Basler

Turned the DC-3 set into a Basler BT-67 and recolored it to match those used in the U.S. Antarctic Program!

Last photo is for reference - the color is based on the Kenn Borek planes used at the U.S. station.

Did you extend the fuselage to account for the turbos? The BT-67 is a few feet longer than a piston DC

I saw that online but I opted not to change the overall structure for the sake of a few studs, it gets tricky with all the angles and how they fit together. My modifications were solely around the engines and some minor part changes due to color availability
