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.

Thank you Richard.

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.

Thank you Dave.

In 1963, my first commecial flight was on one of these. Non-stop Fort Worth to Paris for $6. That's Paris, Texas, of course.

More great shots. Prop blur is really good. Second shot is my favorite.

Nice capture of my favorite prop plane. Whether a C-47 or a DC-3, one of the best every in design and durability.
