Prior to certification of the Army Model C-39 or C-42 as a civil
aircrait, the following must be accomplished:
Pach aircraft must satisfactorily pass an inspection for confornity,
possible hidden damage, and for workmanship and materials used in
making any repairs and/or alterations.  In making the inspection
for hidden damage, the outer wing panels nust be removed to
permit inspection of the doublers  and attaching angles for defects
and replacement thereof and needed in accordance with the Airworthi-
ness Directives for Douglas DC-3 series aircraft as are pertinent
adverse lattect the ight characteristics, the particular airplane  If any changes have been made
must be flight tested.
Instrument markings and placards must be installed as reguired by
this specification.  Attention should be given to the windshield
equipment and it should be determined that a satisfactory windshield
wiper is installed.
The military litter boxes, litters, and supporting structure should
Such brackets and supporting structure as will not
interfere with the safe operation of the aircraft may, at the

equipment has been rendered inoperative.
Flares and flare system as required for the particular operation
any interior or exterior changes made to the primary structure or
equipment must be either according to approved Douglas drawings or
satisfactorily substantiated.

Approved wing position lights similar to those installed on the
Douglas Model DC-3 must be installed,  Douglas drawings 5003503,
5006262 and 5160600 may be referred to in making this installation.
The tail light must be replaced with approved unit.
switch must be installed in accordance with Douglas Project

The propeller feathering lines must be revised co conform with
Douglas Project Sketch No. 5-840705.
A portable fire extinguisher accessible to the pilot and co-pilot
must be installed in the pilot's compartment.  The fire extinquisher
mounted at station -86.0  may be moved to the new

sign, visible to all passengers, should be installed in the passenger
The gasoline filler caps should be marked with the word "Fuel" and
the "Min. Octane Rating" of the fuel that may be used for the
engine installation.
The oil filler caps should be marked with the word "oil".
If the aircraft  is to be used in Air Carrier Service,
hether all hose used in the oil-in line is approved fire-resistant
and if not,  replace with approved fire-resistant hose as soon
as it becomes available.
If the aircraft is to be used in Air Carrier Service, the acceptability
and airworthiness of any radio equipment installed in the particular
aircraft must be determined by the Chief, Air Carrier Maintenance
Upon completion of the conversion to certificated status, the manufacturer's
nameplate on the aircraft should be altered to include the date of conversion.  In
case the original nameplate is not sufficiently large to include this additional
no circumstances,
