HI Jim,
Too bad it won’t ever fly again. I remember flying in DC3’s as a passenger and it was a strange feeling to be sitting angled to the ground when the plane was loading.
Then as it took off - gaining speed the tail would lift - you would be sitting horizontal to the ground and eventually you would gently lift off - engines roaring. A great experience. Thanks for posting.

Here is one more image from the roll of BW400CN found in my Bessa R2a.  
This DC-3 was hauling skydivers when it lost an engine, and sits as a 
monument to the past.  It was deemed too expensive to restore it to 
flying status.

C & C welcomed.
