The DC-3 is a hell of an airplane. I would love to be able to fly it, but I'm affraid they are nearing extinction. My uncle flew a DC-3 for 15 years and said it was the best time in his aviation career, but also the most nerve racking.

Great photos! It is facinating to know that at one point the DC3 was the 747/777/A380 of world!
