RiŠardo I think you meant to say "DC-3 or C-47". This is the DC-4. Duh! Of course - my apologies! A moment of mental aberration as it was, of course, the DC-3. Also it seems that the licence was granted on 15 July 1936, rather than in 1941. Maybe I'd better have an early night. RiŠardo -- Moving Things In Still Pictures |
