It did a fly past as we were walking the Malvern 18k challenge for 'Help for Heroes'. Beautiful to see her, glad she landed safely and all is well.

This trooper reminds me of my passion and bread and butter! I saw her at the Southport air show at the weekend a few days later this happened to her. A lucky morning at Manchester Airport she unexpectedly appeared after being well camouflaged in the background after an engine refit departing such a great surprise treat we even got a nice wave from the engineer standing at the door during departure. Wonderful catch guys!

THIS WAS BRILLIANT LIVE, JUST AS GOOD 2ND/3RD TIME AROUND ..HAHA.. WELL DONE MARTIN AND CHARLIE FOR CAPTURING THIS

Aw such a shame. I was at the 1940's festival at Grassington yesterday where it was en route to for a flyover. The whole crowd was absolutely gutted when the news came through it wouldn't be making it, was a glorious day for it as well. Ah well, there's always next year, just glad she got down safely.

Is that what I’m keep seeing them cause I’m like “wow an old war plane”

Fantastic show! Three cheers for the venerable DC-3 and her steadfast, talented, worthy and marvelous pilot, crew and all emergency responders and their fantastic readiness and vehicles! Dakotas are THE greatest aircraft of ALL time. Everytime I see or hear of them they are doing something aeronautically astounding in performance, form and function, all things considered. Here, the bird's making an emergency, single-engine approach, wings level, picture perfect in a craft comparable in size, weight capacity and range to a B-17 - easy-peasey, like few, if any else, all the time, anywhere at the same approach speed of a Cessna 172. I'm a fan of few things but DC-3's are ALWAYS good, imho. Thank goodness for Mr.Douglas and everybody involved in any way in giving humanity the GREAT gift of the DC-3 Dakota.

[@savethewave8706]

Engine failure on left and clever landing safe as sound soon as the engine is fixed in next year

[@AirlinersLive]

A great landing by all involved.

[@savethewave8706]

Is engine check Cuz we might need bomber plane in tomorrow

[@MrJoggl]

Trying to taxi with one engine is not that useful :D

[@beastboy7478]

I was there when it landed it stayed at the end for about 20 mins waiting then it came back with working engines.

[@edje8339]

what happend with the dakota????

[@AirlinersLive]

Single engine failure and diverted into Manchester. Stayed on the runway until they got engineers out with a tow bar to get it back to a remote stand to fix it

[@LordWisienka]

Fastinating!
