Meine Herren !
Excuse me for not having corrected with HSL magenta and blue down to zero; on my screen it didn't look so bad.
The light bulbs in the museum do have an awful spectrum of greenish/magentish/blueish light.
In Lightroom, the setting 'automatic' wasn't able to deal with it - and that says a lot, since it often works fine.
After having corrected it, there still was a rest of magenta and blue dominating...

To the eye the ligth of the bulbs wasn't nice either I noticed and regarding presentation of the artifacts I was not happy
with it anyway.

Museums around the world are renowned for their poor lighting, but you have done a very good job with these photos, thank you for going to as much effort as you have.

Beautiful photos, Gunther, in spite of the lighting!  Thank you for posting.  These will be very useful for me when I get around to building my NINAK.
Cheers,
Bud

Thanks for posting them Gunther.
 A couple of interesting points I hadn't noticed before: landing wires from the bottom of the cabane struts to the half-bay point, and double rudder wires running externally all the way from the cockpit! Thanks again!
