Well, I recall the D models sitting on their pads with the aluminum (skin) side panels between the front wheel wells and the nose of the AC that looked somewhat like corrugated sheet iron you put on a farm building roof. Once airborne, everything straightens out. Add to that , from takeoff roll to full rotation, the wing tips flapped a full 18 feet.....if it weren't for the wing dolly wheels it'd be more than that.
