Hello folks,

As the C-47 is a military aircraft, for it to go onto the N-reg (Civil) it has to be called a DC3C-S1C3G or some such like.

It was a great day, I managed to go on Sunday, the weather actually behaved, the re-enactors really set the scene and it was really great to get the old girl back to her original field, needless to say the comments on the Youtube take-off videos summed up the general feeling 😉

The aircraft was a C-47 prior to being entered on the N-reg, she was the mount of 92nd TCS C.O. Maj. Cecil Petty which are the markings she wears today.

The lads flew her home to Oxford on Tuesday afternoon.
