We have DC-3's going over our house each day doing joy flights. It's it's an awesome sound. They are so slow they look like they might just drop out of the sky!
as a child, we lived in the flight path of military planes going in for repairs at a Douglas facility. I would not even guess how many I have seen
It's very impressive how these old birds keep flying.
Nice!
Cool !!
That is cool, great capture!
Shining………...
Bravo! That's very beautiful! Fine!
this is really a cool shot!
Very good capture of this old one
Great catch - the halo makes it easier to see!
It makes me smile to see these old classics still flying. The Dakota / DC3 / C47 / Goony Bird is one of my favorite planes. Great capture, Richard!
Wow what a cool capture.
Quite the photo. Nice effect.
Cool capture and great PW!
