Before, I resize some of my stuff, I would first answer that the BAF painted C-47, N49AG-C-53D-DO-c/n11737 OT-CWG based in Belgium in 1996 is now residing at paris-Orly devoid of belgian markings. She was at La Ferté Allais on May 15th together with F-AZTE.

There was also a static DC-3 or C-47 with undercarriage doors in US colour scheme, identification unknown.

Manfred Pflumm and not Plumpf had built a large number of replicas for museums across Germany. (Fokker DR1, Fokker E.III, Junlers J 10, Junkers Ju 87 which was displayed at Frankfurt International’s viewers terrace in 1979), Bf 109E, Ju 13 at Stuttgart)

He is located at INTERNATIONAL LUFTFAHRTMUSEUM MANFRED PFLUMM, D-78056 Villingen-Schwenningen.

Probably a Manfred Plumpf replica

Melv,

Talking about aircrafts used in US movies, when Strategic Air Command was released in Belgium, maybe 50 years ago, there was a 52 minutes on Paul Mantz (Frank tallman was not mentioned). I wonder if someone can recall or find the name of this documentary?

One thing, in my everlasting research of the c/n of every aircraft I ever photographed, would one of the lucky men allowed to examine 474 at close range provide the info.

Thks very much in advance

Willy

Confirm David, photograph taken in Feb 1983 and not Feb 1982

Hope the Hendon one will be rebuilt the same way in a not too distant future
