| This special video is a tribute to one of the most versatile aircraft ever built - the Douglas DC-3.
From the DC-3s origins at Santa Monica, over half a century ago, you will see the early days of the aircraft, through to the fabulous scenes of DC-3s operating today.
Our cameras provide a unique opportunity to view the DC-3 undergoing a major maintenance and overhaul program. You will view "underskin" technical detail not normally seen: airframe, interior, engines, wings and much more.
Fully refurbished and back in the air, we join the Pionair DC-3 for a flight, watching the pilots at work in the cockpit. A Pilot's Checklist is included with this video.
See the beautiful livery of the immaculately restored National Airways Corporation of New Zealand Douglas DC-3 Skyliner, reminiscent of airline travel of the 1960's. Watch these classic propliners operating charter flights in the 21st Century.
This video will thrill you with stunning close-up footage of landings, take-offs, taxiing, pre-flight walkaround, engine run-ups, the classic lines and unique sounds of the DC-3.
"The best contemporary footage yet filmed of the Douglas DC-3 provides stunning air-to-air sequences of the classic propliner flying among breathtaking landscapes."
This video is a superb tribute to the Douglas DC-3.
In NTSC DVD format with runtime of about 70 minutes.
