Good stuff!

I never notice the system of wire cross-bracing on the upper part of the cargo doors that seems to be there to keep them from flopping open all the way. An interesting detail for a true-super detailer. Maybe not in 1/72, but surely in 1/48.

I wish they would turn the damn camera around on those cockpit shots and take some pictures of the radio room and such.

From what I've seen, there wasn't much behind the cockpit but wing access and the cargo area below.

By the way, here is a great video of the Me323

Is one engine off around 1:13?.

Yes, the inner starboard engine was off...I have seen several photos where one or both inner engines were off during transit. It leaves me to wonder if this was done for economy.
