Samenvatting
Welcome aboard
This year the Douglas DC-3 celebrates its 90 Anniversary. Its first flight was on the 17th December 1935 at Clover Field,
Santa Monica, California.
To mark this uneventful aviation event, I have produced this “90 YEARS Anniversary” addition for all DC-3 and C-47 aficionadas across the globe.
As an Aviation photographer myself I have followed the DC-3 since the early 80s and traveled across the globe in search of the many active & non-active examples.
Over the years I have written many articles and collected tons of DC-3 post cards, slides, photo’s, stickers, brochures, time-tables, kit models, patches and memorabilia. In addition I have traveled to Alaska, Canada, United States, Caribbean, South America and Africa to photograph DC-3 workhorse in action, war-birds, hangar queens and derelict aircraft.
This book is a tribute to the iconic DC-3 with a spread of old/new pictures, photo captions, short stories and lots of memorabilia from the Golden Days of Aviation and current aviation activities.
This book is showcasing the amazing career of the world’s most iconic aircraft and it’s a must-have for all the Douglas DC-3 fans across the world.
