Kein Wunder, wurde sie als Dakota militärischem Nutzen zugeführt. Auch als Rosinenbomber hat sie, und natürlich auch ihre Piloten!!! unschätzbare Dienste geleistet! Ich liebe dieses Flugzeug, egal ob zivil oder militärisch, ob Personen- oder Frachtmaschine.

if other planes could be referred as "she", I would prefer DC-3 as "he"... with the tail dragger that makes the cockpit pointing at the sky, complete with the thick wing, even in motionless, you can feel that he sits there majestically and spread his wings ready to fly... you know what I mean if you look at 0:46

This brought tears. As a boy I grew up in Grenada, West Indies. At that time the only large! aircraft were, DC3's & Vickers Viscounts. It was always the DC3's that my cousin & I would climb a tree to see. I know that sound so well. I left Grenada in 1960 in just such an aircraft to transfer in Barbados to my ongoing flight to the UK, via Idlewild (JFK) in a DC7C Seven Seas. I have a 5 speaker set-up & with the volume turned up that was just awesome. You must have good sound recording. Thank you so much.

One of the worlds most important aircraft and there are no photos or films of the first takeoff or landing. For the test pilots it was just another day at the office, just a slightly bigger version of the DC2. And another fact that amazes me,,, in 17 years time the design will be 100 years old and it will still look beautiful.

Pity these are not made anymore. A relatively simple design, rugged and reliable. Easy to maintain and restore compared to modern aircraft. I think they still have their uses and just how many are still flying today is a testament to that. In context of a clever and long-lasting design that just works, two machines come into mind: UAZ 2206 (452) "bukhanka" (in production since 1965) and Lada Niva (produced since 1977).

Not to mention they’re small enough to get into the small airports, there was one at the Thomaston-Upson county airport, there’s a C-47 there now, but they still carry a good amount of passengers/cargo, and they can fly from one side of the US to the other no issues whatsoever, although you probably would have to stop along the way once for fuel.

What a plane. Decades ago I did the Revell model and planned a custom build-out for myself ... never did get it though !

That sounds like a really cool project you had in mind! The Swissair Douglas DC-3 is indeed a classic and iconic aircraft with a rich history. It's amazing to see them in action. Maybe one day you'll have the opportunity to see your custom build-out come to life. Thank you for sharing your story!

Thank you for a Great film. Thank you for not any music or voice over. The engines are the music! What is the reg. of this DC-3? Braathens SAFE of Norway was one of a few airlines that had more DC-4s than DC-3s. From 1947-49 they were a charter airline only. From 49-54 they flew from Norway to Hong Kong once a week, and the trip took 4 days. That was less than half of BOAC! One time they had to set in a DC-3 due to a DC-4 was AOG. On the way back between Cairo and Athens the DC-3 was flown past the DC-4 that started the journey one week later! Lol!

I was handed an old airline book (1975) and this beautiful plane was in it with full specs and framework diagram. So great to see it still flying its nice just listen to these old turbo-prop engines at work. Thank you.
