Douglas DC-3 (N17334)

Awesome! 5*

Beautiful!

Superb shot Donald...congratulations!!

Love this shot! Beautiful DC-3!

Excellent shot!!

How was this shot taken? Great photo!

There's an awful lot of rivets holding that old girl together!

Beautifully composed! I don't think I've ever seen this angle before. The long lens really compresses the nose and puts the size of the plane in context with a clear view of the pilot. Alway good to see shots of this great old classic.

I love the "Sky King" Paint on the nacelles

Through out history some things have been designed and manufactured in such a way that it is nearly impossible to improve upon the original design; the samurai sword, 1911 COLT 45, and the Douglas DC-3 all fit into this very small club of amazing longevity and utility.

I'd add the Constellation to TB's list!

Awesome detail and composition! What a magnificent aircraft!

perfect....

Thank you for the even better shot.

It looks like the C-47 but prettier.

beautiful Dc-2!

eric anstine- definitely a DC-3 type! :-)

The FAA civil registration shows it as a DC-3 with Douglas s/n 1920, built in 1937... :-)
