this one never own by AF but AF ask to France Dakota to put this color scheme for the 70th birthday of Air France in 2003. This is the color scheme of the Dakota F-BBBB.

this C-47 took part to the D-Day and for the 60th birthday of this event it will retreive its original color scheme

i think they should keep it in AF colours. There are dozens of dakotas in the invasion livery but as far as i am aware this is the only AF liveried dakota.
