Practically the same as the bomber except for the pointy nose and tail cone, side windows,
and I think the galley was between the 2 spars cannot remember where the Radio op went [I may be getting mixed up with the Halton ] and on the ones I worked on had the seats facing the centre of the cabin aisle which ran the whole length of the right hand side and carried about 12 people ,
The down side of maintenance were the 2 spars, real shin bashers they were unlike the aircrew we didn't have flying boots or suits for protection a twin wire electrical system but I was a 16/17 year old apprentice/improver with B.O.A.C in 1947/48. and the Queen of the sky's was the 049 Connie .
if I'm shot down in flames over memory please forgive age is galloping past.
