Do you recall the fuel burn? Average cruising speeds? Average altitude?
Etc.

Any more DC-3 flying info/stories would be great. Thanks.


I flew '3s for a short while for a Massachusetts commuter about 25 years
ago. 100 gal/hr, gross at 26600 w/ 32 pax, cruise about 130 or 135, iirc,
land on a 3000' runway and make the turnoff. absolutely the best landing
you'll ever get, if you trust her.
