Fairchild XC-119H ... If anyone is interested, I extrapolated these plots from the known photos and elements of the "normal" C-119 to get this.

It is an attempt to make images accessible to all forms of a relatively little-known machine. I’m sure there are a lot of mistakes, and I would like anyone with specific elements to make a constructive criticism of these handmade ...
 
Your shapes look good, but your wing and tailplane sections look like those used on flying models . . .
You might want to use the ones employed on the versions of these types that were built and flown.

cheers,

Yes, I agree. That flat-bottomed Clark-Y airfoil looked familiar. In my day it was the default airfoil for free-flight aircraft.

FWIW, Fairchild drawing 160-000100 (General Arrangement C-119H Airplane) is reproduced in American Secret Projects 2 - Airlifters 1941 to 1961.

Vos formes semblent bonnes, mais vos sections d'aile et d'empennage ressemblent à celles utilisées sur les modèles volants. . .
Vous voudrez peut-être utiliser celles utilisées sur les versions de ces types qui ont été construites et volées.

à votre santé,
Robin.

Thanks fot your answer. It's true for the airfoils of the wing and the stabilizer. There are those I have retained for a 1/24 scale remote control model (not a Clark Y for the wing but a simple logarithmic centerline). According to the photos things are obviously more complicated, the profile not being constant throughout the span, including for the rectangular part! Regarding the stabilizer I think it is an asymmetric biconvex inverted as we often encounter (B-29 ...)
