Nice one!. Keeping history alive, instead of it sitting in a museum gathering dust!. Nice one.

These aircraft was served indian air forces till 1982. That time my father was in 49 squadron of iaf in jorhat assam india. I love these aircraft and sound of engine i still remember it. Rough and tough design who saved our kashmir in 1947. 😊

I watched a documentary about the restoration of "That's all brother" just a few weeks ago. Shame that Night Fright didn't quite join her old pal for the reunion.

Looks like you should have saved the plane you were taking parts off from also

There are 3 dc3/c47 sitting at a little country airport in Vichy Missouri USA. Name of the airport is Rolla Reginal airport they were for sale not sure if still are. I know they are not airworthy they went thru a tornado prob 15-20 years ago and then were pulled down in to a field

There were actually 5, two were purchased before the tornado hit and have been restored andb are now part of the Australian HARS collection - HARS also have the largest collection of original dc3 and c47s in the world at 13, with 5 of them airworthy. Dc3's where popular cheap travel options for Australias maturing airlines during the aviation boom after WW2 . Heck our national war memorial museum had two complete c47s partially disassemble in storage waiting preservation
