Fuel capacity on the Douglas A/B-26
Anybody know what the standard fuel capacity is on a A/B-26? A friend's brother in law is thinking about buying one.
Why he doesn't just ask the owner, I've not a clue.
Thanks in advance.

Get an expert appraisal of the wingspars before money changes hands.
For that price, it can't be in very good condition, more like a write off, except for some parts.
I'm no expert on war birds, but I have a general idea what they are worth and 135 thousand USD for a flyable Douglas B-26 would almost be considered theft I would think.
But then again, I could be wrong.
