The old dame !

Linda aeronave . Eu voei no ano de 1975 de São Paulo para Academia da força aérea na cidade de Pirassununga 👏👏👏👏👍🇺🇸.

DC3 C47 CURTIS COMANDER EXCELENTES AVIÕES DA ÉPOCA AINDA HOJE TEM VÁRIOS EM OPERAÇÃO.

Just wonderfull...

Un bel avion tout simplement.

Eighty years and continue to fligth ¡¡¡¡ Amazing¡¡¡¡¡

C-47.

mi primer vuelo fue en uno similar por los años 60

DC-3 eram os aviões usados pela Força Aérea Brasileira nos anos 70, voavam entre as cidades da amazônia.

IT´'S AN SKY JEEP

El encendido de este avión parece los calambucos de Padilla, cuando llenas la alberca.

Lindo!

Amazing, the aircraft's take off run is almost horizontal, the rar wheel loose ground contact very early during roll.

Dulu pesawat DC 3 ini populer disebut Dakhota

My dad was a C-47 mechanic in WW2.. He would have loved to have seen this. He often told me how safe they were.

Danke !!!!!!

¡ QUÉ BELLEZA !

That's odd! Piston engines usually backfire on the over-run, not with power on. Did the no.2 throttle get slightly retarded at that point?

I was one of the last pilots to fly the
dc-3 in scheduled passenger operations 1976-1979. i was also a DC-3 instructor and check airman for our commuter airline. I notice this DC-3 has Wright R-1820 9 cylinder engines, where most had the 14 cylinder Pratt & Whiney R-1830, as did mine. No deicing boots and no weather radar and a 4 piece windshield where mine had 2 panes. I flew 1,000 hours in the DC-3 and it helped get me to United Airlines where I flew for 29 years.

ok

The DC-3 was a beautiful aircraft.

When I look at the engines driving the propellors, I have to think the engines motor mounts not only have to pull the airplanes hull forward, they have to be robust enough to withstand the engines tremendous torque. If the motor mount were to fail I would think that the engine would careen forward until it falls from the sky.

Good video 🛩️Thankyou 🛫

Красавчик 500 метров и он вспух

В 60 годы на прийск Эбелях возили топливо садились на площадку 500 метров слякоть по колено взлетали с колеи сделанной после руления

I flew in one in 1962

can't help it, but i hate tail-draggers

This is afterfire, not backfire. It is normal for this engine. I worked on many of them after tech school. Afterfire prevents backfire. It goes away once the throttles are reduced to climb power.

Me gustan los tipos de aviones antiguos, porque de ellos dependen los modernos.

Beautiful aircraft, great sound!

An absolutely amazing airplane !!

The old girl was juet clearing her throat... that little backfire.. 😅😊

Missed the run up...kick tires n lite fire?...

Saudades...amo esses DC3

Being a gearhead and motorcycle enthusiast, I never fail to marvel at these big radial engines coming to life! They are a huge ballet of pistons, rods, and valvetrain doing their thing!

The highest time DC3 ever (flight hours).

The greatest moveable object created by man and who would disagree?

Was the backfire the result of backing off the power, to me it sounded like it?

❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

Back in 1985 I had the pleasure of flying in a Provincetown-Boston Airlines (PBA) DC-3 from Key west to Miami. Earlier that year I saw a Canadian Forces Dakota at a Charleston Air Force Base airshow.

Que linda nave

Le DC-3, mon avion préféré ! 💝

...there she is,'the Queen of the Skies' with no make up...l luv it...
