Nice turboprop adaptation! I've even seen a Gooney with 3 turboprops...one on each wing, one on the nose, too! The old radials are getting scarce, turboprop's the way to go.
@poptartpencil Maybe for "modern" aircraft, but the DC-3 has been around for 75yrs and has quite a history that adds to its allure. If they started building them again, I'd bet they would sell a ton of them. As they say,,,," The only replacement for a DC-3 is a DC-3"

A SAAB is a SAAB and a DAKOTA is a DAKOTA! If it is a good way to leave all the Dakotas flying, it's OK then!
Otherwise, the sound doesn't match the shape!!!

Dont' get me wrong, I like Saabs, but a Saab 340 has nothing on this classy machine.

It doesn't get much prettier than a DC-3/C-47!
