The "Gooney Bird". Those have been around forever and used for so many different purposes. Still being used today. Great little plane.

Great photos. Brings back good memories. I was an aircraft mechanic working on C-47's in 1943-44 getting them ready for D-Day.

I love the photos especially in the military paint job.
There are so many flying because unlike modern passenger aircraft the cabin was not pressurized so no upper limit on the number of takeoffs and landings.
