Line Up and Wait
A couple weeks ago, I went for a flight over Auckland in a DC-3. It's a regular tourist flight used to raise enough money to keep the local DC-3 (actually, a Dakota) flying.
For you fellow glider types: This one was reinforced for use as a towplane to tow assault gliders during D-Day. Biggest towplane I've ever seen!
I thought I'd share a few photos and some short video clips I shot of the flight.
Takeoff
Over Auckland
Landing at Ardmore
Takeoff seen from outside
I'm scheduled to fly on the local PBY Catalina tomorrow, so I'll post some shots of that too for anyone who's interested.
