Hello,
have added pics on my website that could do with some help, either with an ID or with confirmation or additional info.

Many thanks!

The C-117D super DC-3 nose at Kendall-Tamiami, FL appears to belong to former Air 500 N9663N (cn 43385) which was parked at KFLL for a long time.

Several pics of it HERE on airliners.net:

Can't help with IDs, but here's a shot of the forward fuselage of Martin 404 N969M I took at Yanks in Chino back in 2008 if you want to use it:

And a C-47, same place, same date, no ID on it:

Thanks for hosting a great site!

Nice pics but for my website they don't fit in the unidentified category and not in the 'not able to share on the internet' gallery.
Thanks for the offer though and thks for sharing here!

I think the Martin nose was at Aero Trader and the C-47s were in Tallichet's yard. Might be mistaken though...
